Measure
Aromatase Inhibitor EFP
Letrozole administration (20 mg) on day 2-4 (EFP; early follicular phase) of cycle 2 and Nal-Glu GnRH antagonist used to estimate the overall amount of GnRH secreted. Letrozole: Letrozole 20 mg orally one time NAL-GLU GnRH antagonist: 5 mcg/kg of the NAL-GLU GnRH antagonist subcutaneously
Aromatase Inhibitor LFP
Letrozole administration (20 mg daily x 2) at follicle size of \> 16 mm (LFP; late follicular phase) in cycle 2. Nal-Glu GnRH antagonist used to estimate the overall amount of GnRH secreted. Letrozole: Letrozole 20 mg orally one time NAL-GLU GnRH antagonist: 5 mcg/kg of the NAL-GLU GnRH antagonist subcutaneously
