Note. BW, body weight; BS, bulbospongious; LA, levator ani; SV, seminal vesicle; HB/EP, head and body of the epididymis; T/EP, tail of the epididymis; EP fat, epididymal fat pad. Data are expressed as mean ±SEM. Means in the group “Adolescent” within columns with different superscripts (A–C) are significantly different (p < 0.05). Means in the group ADULT within columns with different superscripts (a and b) are significantly different (p < 0.05).
