Abstract
Prolonged injs. of large amts. of testosterone propionate, even when begun one day after birth, did not significantly alter skeletal maturation or body growth in rats. Appearance of the os penis and of the epiphyses for the ischial tuberosities was hastened. However, osseous progress of the untreated animals was such that at 87 days of age no skeletal difference between control and treated rats existed, whether castrated or intact, even with regard to the os penis and the epiphyses for the ischial tuberosities.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
