Sumario:Effect of hexane extract of Ferula jaeschkeana has been studied on the histological and biochemical constituents of the uterus of ovariectomized rats. Its administration caused remarkable increase in the height of luminal epithelium and the number of uterine glands. Its per se treatment also caused significant increase in the glycogen and protein contents and the activity of acid and alkaline phosphatase. When the extract was administered with estradiol dipropionate, a synergic effect was observed in histological and biochemical constituents of the uterus. Conjoint administration with progesterone did not antagonize the estrogenic influence of the extract.
