Popis: | Background Non-invasive self-testing using an objective chemical method to detect ovulation is valuable for women planning conception, practising contraception or undergoing infertility investigations or treatment. Methods Based on luteal phase secretion of progesterone (P4) and excretion of its major metabolite, pregnanediol glucuronide (PDG), we developed a novel direct liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LCMS) method to measure PDG and other steroid glucuronides in urine and in dried urine spots (DUS) without deconjugation or derivatization. Urine PDG by LCMS and immunoassay (P3G) and P4 by immunoassay with and without adjustment for creatinine were evaluated in daily first void urine samples from 10 women through a single menstrual cycle in which ovulation was confirmed by serial transvaginal ultrasound. Results Urine PDG with and without creatinine adjustment was stable during the follicular phase with the expected striking rise in the luteal phase peaking at 5 days after ovulation. Using a single spot urine sample (100 μL) or a DUS ( Conclusions This method holds promise as a non-invasive self-test method for women to determine by an objective chemical method their ovulatory status. |
