Résumé

Une seule dose de 2 μg d'estradiol a augmenté la consommation d'oxygène des rats castrés, seulement quand les thyroïdes étaient intactes. Une dose unique de 0,40 mg de progestérone a augmenté aussi la consommation d'oxygène des rats castrés, en présence ou absence des thyroïdes. A ces doses, il n'y a ni synergisme ni antagonisme entre l'estrogène et le progestérone dans leur influence sur la consommation d'oxygène.
