title: [Action of 5 alpha-reduced diols on the uterus of sexually immature rats].
abstract: The effect of testosterone (T), 5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha, 17 beta-diol (3 alpha-diol) and 5 alpha-and-rostane-3 beta, 17 beta-diol (3 beta-diol) on the uterus of immature rats was studied in combined with estradiol-17 beta (E2) and separate intraperitoneal administration. Repeated administration of T (100 micrograms per 100 g of body mass) caused no changes in the uterine mass whereas a similar dose of 3 alpha-diol resulted in a noticeable effect (0.05 greater than greater than p less than 0.1). 3 beta-diol administered repeatedly at a dose of 1.00 microgram per 100 g of body mass, produced the same uterotropic effect like E2. In combined administration of the above androgens (100 micrograms) and E2 (10 micrograms) 3 alpha-diol only inhibited the uterotropic effect of E2.
