PIP: A total of 107 patients were followed up after uncomplicated induced abortion performed prior to 12 weeks gestation. Daily measurements of luteinzing hormone, estrogens, and pregnanediol showed that the menstrual function and the pituitary-ovarian association were recovered within the 1st 3 cycles after the abortion by vacuum aspiration. Pituitary-ovarian disorders persisted in 10.2% of the patients. A set of rehabilitation procedures is proposed on the basis of the findings for women in need of pregnancy termination. (author's)^ieng
