Abstract
In 21 cases of [female] menopause, it was found possible to control the symptoms by weekly adm. of 30 to 50 mg. of testosterone propionate. It is apparent that 20-40 mg. of the [male] sex hormone will not inhibit bleeding, even though the bleeding is not that found in normal menstruation accompanied by the formation of a functioning corpus luteum.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
