Fig. 2.
Mean percent change in androgen levels over four time blocks (5 days each) from the female’s LH peak. Day 0 is the day of the LH peak, and is normalized to 100%. The top graph indicates significant changes in testosterone across the time blocks: −10/−6 is significantly lower than −5/−1 and 1/5 (Wilcoxon signed-ranks test, P < 0.05). The second graph indicates significant changes in DHT across the time blocks: −10/−6 is significantly lower than −5/−1 (P < 0.03). The third graph indicates significant changes in estradiol across the time blocks: −10/−6 is significantly lower than −5/−1 and 1/5 (P < 0.03). The fourth graph indicates changes in corticosterone across the 5-day time blocks, but these were not significant (F = 2.33, P = 0.31).
