Ovarian hormone: lack of effect on reproductive structures of female Asian musk shrews

GL Dryden and JN Anderson

Uterine and vaginal weights and histologies are not altered by ovariectomy or estrogen treatment in the Asian musk shrew (Suncus murinus). In addition, ovariectomized shrews mate. Thus, the role of ovarian hormones in the control of the reproductive status of this species does not conform to the accepted mammalian pattern.
