  • Title: The plasma concentrations of testosterone and LH during the ovulation cycle of the hen (Gallus domesticus).
    Author: Etches RJ, Cunningham FJ.
    Journal: Acta Endocrinol (Copenh); 1977 Feb; 84(2):357-66. PubMed ID: 576348.
    Abstract:
    The plasma concentrations of testosterone and luteinizing hormone (LH) were measured by radioimmunoassay during the ovulation cycle of the hen. The baseline concentrations of testosterone were 100 to 250 pg/ml and the maximum concentration of 904 pg/ml was observed 6 h before ovulation. The possibility that testosterone is the ovarian excitation hormone which initiates the ovulation-inducing surge of LH is discussed.
