title: Bromocriptine induced hypoprolactinemia and accessory reproductive glands response to testosterone in castrated male rats.
abstract: Testosterone stimulates the Accessory Reproductive Glands (ARG) and may increase the serum titres of prolactin in castrated male rats. Bromocriptine antagonizes the testosterone-induced alteration of ARG responses; the testosterone antagonistic action of bromocriptine depends on the degree of serum prolactin depletion.
