Numbers of osteocytes and osteoblasts show a normal appearance in the control (A) and sham-operated (B) rats. The trabecular atrophic changes and the increased number of the osteoclasts can be seen clearly in the OVX rats (C). Treatment of the OVX animals with Psidium guajava (D, E) and estrogen (F) showed protective changes in the bone (stained with hematoxylin and eosin, ×400). OVX: Ovariectomized.
