In some animals which ovulate spontaneously, oestrogen may stimulate prolactin secretion and high levels of prolactin may inhibit steroid-induced surges of LH. The possibility was investigated that such conditions were operating in the reflex ovulator Microtus agrestis to prevent spontaneous ovulation. However, bromocriptine treatment to suppress prolactin secretion did not enhance the poor ovulatory response to administration of oestradiol benzoate.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
