Epididymal sperm counts in rats treated with EL (B), estradiol
(C) and a combination of EL and estradiol (D), compared to the control (A).
The values are shown as the mean + standard deviation. Group B shows a
marked increase in the spermatogenic cell count compared to the control
(group A) and group D (EL + estradiol). The cell count is significantly reduced in group D (estradiol-treated rats) compared to group A and group D
