Abstract EN
The study had been conducted to evaluate the effects of nandrolone decanoate (abused repeated doses( on female rat’s ovary and uterus during administration and withdrawal.
The study included 18 rats that were divided into control group (n = 6) and treated group (n = 12).
The treated group was injected intramuscular (IM) with nandrolone decanoate (7 mg / kg body weight) for three consecutive days, for two weeks.
The study stated that androlone decanoate increases the weights of body, ovary, and uterus.
Moreover, it has a tendency of bringing upon modifications in the biochemical, histopathological, and morphological makeup of the female reproductive aspects.
In conclusion, nandrolone decanoate has been identified as deleterious element for the female rats, and it is suggested that keen observations must be made on the human abusers to control and manage the possible pathologies.
