| Abstract: | The concentration of plasma estrone and estradiol was measured in different groups of postmenopausal women; including physiologic menopause, castration menopause, and those who in addition to menopause had diabetes, hypertension, or cardiac disease. The mean values for estrone were 41 pg. per milliliter and for estradiol 13 pg. per milliliter. There was no statistical difference in the levels of plasma estrogen in all groups of postmenopausal women studied. In 3 individuals, studies of estrogens in ovarian vein blood suggested a nonovarian origin of estrogen. |
