Figure 2. Androgen treatment in adulthood suppresses serum LH levels in ovariectomized rats.

Figure 2

Ovariectomized female rats were implanted with either empty Silastic capsules or capsules filled with either crystalline T, or DHT (n=5 for all groups). Seven days later, trunk blood was collected and serum LH levels were determined by RIA. Animals treated with T and DHT showed a significant reduction (p<0.001) serum LH levels compared to oil-treated controls.
