THE EFFECT OF TESTOSTERONE ON WATER DISTRIBUTION OF SECONDARY SEX GLANDS OF MALE RATS

Abstract
The "sodium space" water of the seminal vesicles and prostates of castrated rats increased at 12 and 24 hours after a single injection of testosterone propionate followed by a decrease at 48, 72, and 96 hours. With the growth of the glands the intracellular water increased more than did the extracellular water.
