Abstract

The author and co-workers (19) have already reported on estrogen excretion in male subjects with and without previous myocardial infarction. These investigations showed that following the administration of estradiol-17B a, subjects with previous myocardial infarction excrete more urinary estriol relative to estrone and estradiol-17B than the control group. This difference was not apparent in the urinary excretion when estradiol-17B was not administered.
