تخمدان پروبیوتیک مدول رفتار رفتاری گام به گام است، اما ترجیح جنسی و یا جایگزین شرایط جفت گیری در موش های صحرایی زن

The present study investigated whether the presence or absence of peripubertal ovarian hormones affects sexual preference and conditioned place preference for paced mating in adult female rats primed with 10 μg estradiol benzoate and 1 mg progesterone. Ovariectomy (OVX) occurred either before or after pubertal development, and 4 weeks later rats began a series of behavioral tests. Rats with ovaries removed before the pubertal timeframe (Prepubertal OVX) were more active, more likely to withdrawal from the male compartment, and did not discriminate between mounts and intromissions during paced mating relative to rats with ovaries during puberty (Adult OVX). Both Adult OVX and Prepubertal OVX rats showed a higher preference for the male when hormone primed vs. oil treated and a conditioned place preference for paced mating behavior. The results of the present study demonstrate that some, but not all, aspects of female sexual behavior require ovarian hormones during puberty.
