“In the mid-luteal phase, median progesterone levels were significantly lower in groups B, C and D , whereas group E was comparable with group A, 68.9 and 98.0 ng/ml, respectively.”
“ ASP levels increased 3-fold in the progesterone versus testosterone treated groups, whereas TG-AUC was significantly lower.”
“Only the progesterone treated group had a significant postprandial ASP increase at two hours compared to basal levels (439.8 ± 62.4 versus 253.4 ± 59.03 μg/mL, P = 0.04).”
“These findings suggest that progesterone enhances ASP production and TG clearance simultaneously, supporting the notion of a stimulatory role for progesterone on ASP-mediated TG clearance.”
