Abstract
Morphological study of ovarian follicular cysts induced by chorionic gonadotropin (300 U) and insulin (Protafane HM; 2.5 U) in adult rats showed that superovulatory dose of chorionic gonadotropin and moderate hyperinsulinemia induced the development of ovarian cysts on days 3–5 in 100% cases. Dynamic study of ovarian morphology showed that changes were reversible and the cysts regressed within 60 days, which confirmed their functional nature.
