Title: The relationship between serum estradiol level at pregnancy of 4 to 9 weeks and the pregnancy ending
Abstract: Objective To explore the relationship between serum estradiol level at pregnancy of 4 to 9 weeks and the pregnancy ending. Methods The pregnant women who had conceived from 4 to 9 weeks were previously divided into 2 groups:normal pregnancy and missed abortion. The normal pregnancy group was further divided into recurrent miscarriage and non-recurrent miscarriage,and then each group was divided into 6 subgroups based upon gestational age. Chemiluminescence reaction were used to determine the serum estradiol levels. Results With an increase of gestational age, the level of serum E2 in women with normal pregnancy significantly increased, while the serum E2 level in women with missed abortion was significantly lower than normal pregnancy at the same gestational age. Conclusion The serum level E2 is significantly decreased in women with missed abortion,suggesting that serum E2 should be an important factor in early pregnancy.
