Abstract
Surgically induced cryptorchidism in rams resulted in elevated serum concentrations of LH but near-normal concentrations of androgen (testosterone and 5α-DHT).Injections of ovine LH (2 × 50μg;2 × 500 μg)resulted in maximal androgen secretion in the intact rams and similar but lower concentrations in cryptorchid rams. Peak concentrations were 14·9and 8·5ng/ml in the intact and cryptorchid rams respectively (P < 0·05).
