Comparison of the volume of ovary, cortex, medulla, and corpus luteum among study groups.
| Volumes | Formaldehydea | Formaldehyde + curcuminb | Shamc | Controld | P value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ovary | 8.67 ± 1.81 | 9.02 ± 1.006 | 10.93 ± 3.5 | 11.76 ± 2.11 | 0.13 |
| Cortex | 8.01 ± 0.53 | 8.51 ± 0.89 | 9.69 ± 1.75 | 9.75 ± 1.05 | 0.07 |
| Medulla | 1.06 ± 0.46 | 1.3 ± 0.11 | 1.64 ± 0.53 | 1.69 ± 0.3 | 0.06 |
| Corpus luteum | 3.02 ± 0.24 | 3.18 ± 0.2 | 3.56 ± 0.79 | 3.79 ± 0.24 | 0.05 |
The data were represented by the mean ± SD. Two groups were compared using the post hoc (Tukey) test, and all groups were compared using the one-way ANOVA test. SD: standard deviation.
