The determination of steroids in saliva provides useful information in the clinical study of various endocrine functions, and salivary progesterone concentration has been widely used for assessing corpus luteum function during the spontaneous menstrual cycle and early pregnancy. However, the determination of oestradiol in saliva (SE2) has previously been found unsatisfactory. SE2 profiles and saliva/plasma E2 ratios were established (during the different periods of the menstrual cycle) by a highly sensitive radioimmunoassay method during normal menstrual cycle. During cycles hyperstimulated for in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer, the SE2 pattern is similar to the corresponding profile in plasma with a peri-ovulatory oestradiol peak. There is a significant difference between fertile and non-fertile cycles with a higher saliva/plasma ratio in conception cycles.
