Plasma level of estrogen in Sham (diestrus) and OVX rats during behavioral testing (periods 1–7). The gray bar indicates the level of estrogen 1 hr after injection of 10 μg of 17β-estradiol (OVX2 group, open triangles). The plasma estrogen concentration tested 5 d after implantation of pellets with 17β-estradiol was similar in both OVX1 (period 6, open squares) and OVX2 (period 7) groups. The level of estrogen slightly decreased when tested 1 month after implantation (OVX1group, period 7). Filled circles, Sham.
