Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate hypoestrogenic "inactive phases" (IP) in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, with respect to age, reproductive stage, and follicular depletion. DESIGN:Analysis of prospectively collected menstrual bleed and estrone-3-glucuronide data. SETTING:Center for Population and Health, Georgetown University. PATIENT(S):White women (n = 88, aged 25-59 years, mean = 44.7 years) from the population-based Biodemographic Models of Reproductive Aging (BIMORA) project. INTERVENTION(S):None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):The IP durations by age and reproductive stage. Estimated follicular depletion rate based on IP durations. RESULT(S):Mean IP duration and variability decreased and then increased with age/reproductive stage. The proportion of very short (≤ 1 day) IP durations increased and then decreased with age/stage. Long IPs occurred most, but not exclusively, in the oldest age/latest stage. Follicular depletion rate estimates were a plausible 2%-4% per year of age, but these models were a poor fit because IP durations did not consistently increase across ages/stages. CONCLUSION(S):Follicular depletion models alone do not explain the observed pattern of IPs. Our data suggest that IPs reflect both follicular depletion and hyperstimulation in premenopausal and perimenopausal women. Knowledge of underlying IP patterns in the menstrual cycle could inform decisions about hormone sampling and contraception during the perimenopause.
