Arnold Klopper, Marion Hall
PMCID: PMC1795152  PMID: 5539422

Abstract

A new compound in the triphenylethylene series has been tested for its effect in causing ovulation in secondary amenorrhoea. Twenty patients were given a total of 40 courses of treatment and ovulation resulted in 16 instances. Three patients became pregnant. Probably this compound can induce ovulation in suitable subjects.
