  1. Batch 1: 3 occasions over ≈ 3 months. Batch 2: 2 occasions over ≈ 6 months. Total: 5 occasions over ≈ 1 year. SHBG = Sex hormone-binding globulin. FSH = follicle stimulating hormone. LH = luteinizing hormone. E1-G = estrone-3-glucuronide. PDG = pregnanediol-3-glucuronide. 2-OHE1 = 2-hydroxyestrone. 16α-OHE1 = 16α-hydroxyestrone.
