Normal Adult Women
1. Images of the both ovaries will be obtained using vaginal ultrasound and the number, size, and spatial arrangement of ovarian follicles will be noted for both ovaries in each subject. 2. On study day one, recombinant-hCG (r-hCG) will be administered intravenously at a dose of 25 micrograms. 3. Blood samples will be obtained at T = -0.5, 0, and +24 hours. 4. Blood sample will be used for DNA testing to identify genes that may be associated with androgen production. 5. One to two weeks after hCG stimulation testing each subject will come to the CTRI for an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). Each subject will ingest 75 gm of a glucose solution and blood samples will be obtained at 0, 15, 30, 60, 120 and 180 minutes after the glucose load. hCG: 3. On study day one, recombinant-hCG (r-hCG) will be administered intravenously at a dose of 25 micrograms. 4\. Blood samples will be obtained at T = -0.5, 0, and +24 hours.
