From: Chronic periadolescent leuprolide exposure affects the development of reproductive physiology and behavior of female and male rats differently, but both mature after treatment termination

Fig. 6

Leuprolide exposure during the periadolescent period affected visits to the stimulus animals during the partner-preference tests in male rats. Top: leuprolide-treated male rats visited the male stimulus more frequently than the saline controls on Test 1 (saline: n = 8; leuprolide: n = 8). Bottom: leuprolide-treated male rats visited the female stimulus more frequently than the saline controls on Test 2. Data are presented as means (± SEM) during the entire 10-min test; n = number of subjects in each group. An asterisk (*) indicates significant post hoc difference between groups. A double asterisk (**) indicates a significant main effect of treatment
