For this purpose, 16 male and 16 female rats were allocated equally to control and experimental groups. After calculating the average weight of all rats, testosterone was administered at a dose of 5 mg/kg body weight (bw) by subcutaneous route, 5 days a week for 10 weeks. At the end of the 10th week, all the rats were euthanized; and corpus and height measurements of the femur and humerus, and cortex and cavum medulla morphometric measurements were made. A significant decrease was detected in the corpus femoris and height measurements of the male rats administered with testosterone (P0.05). A significant decrease was determined in the corpus humeri and height measurements of female and male rats administered with testosterone (Peninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTarihArticle132172176
