On the diagnostic value of intradermal hormonal tests

Abstract

Currently, intradermal hormonal tests are often used for functional diagnostics [2, 6]. Some authors consider the reaction to intradermal administration of hormones to be a manifestation of endocrine allergy [12, 13, 15], others associate the appearance of the reaction with ovulation or an increase in the content of estrogens in the body [7, 10, 14]. But L. V. Gerbolinskaya did not reveal in most cases a relationship between the area of the skin spot and the level of estrogenic stimulation. The lack of data on intradermal tests at the end of pregnancy and childbirth, as well as contradictions in the assessment of the diagnostic value of intradermal hormonal tests make it difficult to use them in obstetrics and gynecology. The purpose of our work was to clarify the nature of the relationship between the severity of reactions to intradermal administration of hormones and the content of estrogens in the body, as well as to identify the degree of specificity of hormonal samples.
