OBJECTIVE |
denotes |
To see if changes in prostacyclin and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) production during early pregnancy in women with habitual abortion is a pregnancy-induced change, we compared the production of these prostanoids in habitual aborters and in healthy controls in nonpregnant state and related it to luteal function. |

METHODS |
denotes |
Comparison between patients (n = 16) with a history of at least three consecutive miscarriages and healthy controls without a history of abortions (n = 11). |

RESULTS |
denotes |
Habitual aborters and control women exhibited no change in the urinary output of the stable degradation products of prostacyclin and TXA2 when studied between 0 and 2 and 5 and 8 days after the luteinizing hormone peak. Habitual aborters as a whole, or when subgrouped to those with normal (10 cycles) or defective luteal function (12 cycles) did not differ from the control series with regard to prostacyclin and TXA2 production. |

CONCLUSIONS |
denotes |
Productions of prostacyclin and TXA2 are not relative to the luteal function and are normal in nonpregnant women with a history of habitual abortion. |
