Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between ultrasonographic appearance of the endometrium and the blood flow of uterine artery,ovarian stroma and VEGF in the spontaneous ovulating cycle.Methods A total of 30 women with normal ovulating function participated in this study.On the day of positive urinary LH,the subjects were divided into three groups(A,B and C) according to Gonen's criterions of endometrial echogenic patterns.The peak systolic velocity(PSV),end-diastolic velocity(EDV),resistance index(RI) in uterine arteries and ovarian stromal vessels were measured with transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography;follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH),estradiol(E_(2)) and progesterone(P) were assessed by fluoroimmunoassay;and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) was assessed by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on the third day of the cycle,the pre-ovulating phase,and the 6～7 day after ovulation.Results ① During the pre-ovulatory phase uterine arteries and ovarian stromal blood flow PSV in group A was significantly higher than that in group C(P0.05).Conclusion Lower receptivity in the hyperechogenic endometrium may be related with corpus luteum defection and disorder of the uterine blood vessel activities.
