SUMMARY

Vitamins B2 and B6 are shown to have oestrogen-like effects and to act synergistically with oestradiol, increasing its action on the uterine weight of ovariectomized rats. Vitamins B1 and pantothenic acid enhanced the action of oestradiol but had no oestrogenic action themselves. Vitamin B12 had neither an oestrogen-like effect nor an influence on the action of oestradiol.
