Post weaning altrenogest use in sows: follicle growth, endocrine profiles and subsequent fertility [PDF]
A severe negative energy balance during first lactation may result in poor reproductive performance in the second litter. Allowing the sow recovery time after weaning by inseminating the sow the second estrus after weaning (skip a heat) improves ...

Effect of androgen treatment during foetal and/or neonatal life on ovarian function in prepubertal and adult rats [PDF]
We investigated the effects of different windows of testosterone propionate (TP) treatment during foetal and neonatal life in female rats to determine whether and when excess androgen exposure would cause disruption of adult reproductive function ...

Expression of activin subunits and receptors in the developing human ovary:activin A promotes germ cell survival and proliferation before primordial follicle formation [PDF]
The formation of the essential functional unit of the ovary, the primordial follicle, occurs during fetal life in humans. Factors regulating oogonial proliferation and interaction with somatic cells before primordial follicle formation are largely ...

Effect of FSH on testicular morphology and spermatogenesis in gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal mice lacking androgen receptors [PDF]
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and androgen act to stimulate and maintain spermatogenesis. FSH acts directly on the Sertoli cells to stimulate germ cell number and acts indirectly to increase androgen production by the Leydig cells.
