title: An early effect of testosterone propionate upon hypothalamic function in the neonatal rat.
abstract: Rats treated neonatally with testosterone propionate exhibit a reduced uterine growth response to estradiol administration prepubertally. This androgen-induced impairment is the consequence of developmental effects on both the ovary and the hypothalamic-pituitary complex, although the latter is the more sensitive.
