Summary.

The `menstrual stimulant Component A' substances, which have now been identified as certain prostaglandins, generally stimulate smooth-muscle preparations but may inhibit the human myometrium in certain circumstances. A tentative re-assessment of their physiological significance is suggested.

Reproduction is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.

The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.

More information is on the Reasons to publish page.
