Previous work has suggested possible influences of ovarian hormones on evoked potentials
in the auditory system. The aim of this project was to study the effects of ovariectomy and
subsequent administration of estrogen replacement on the auditory brainstem response and
the middle latency response. Groups of 90 day-old Long-Evans hooded rats were
anesthetized for bilateral ovariectomies (ovex) and recordings made 3 weeks later. During
the week prior to recordings some ovaricctomized groups received subcutaneous injections …
