Representative histological sections from ovary rat of all experimental groups (H&E, 40×). a In NC group, normal histological appearance was observed. b More apparent atretic cystic-like follicles were observed in BPA-exposed rats (PC group). c Less atretic follicles were observed in BPA-exposed rats concurrently treated with Ficus deltoidea (F group). d The histological appearance in rats treated with Ficus deltoidea (FC group) was comparable to the control rats (FC group). PA: Preantral; A:Antral; At:Atretic; CL:Corpus Luteum. NC- Negative Control group (vehicle corn oil). PC- Positive Control group (BPA 10 mg/kg). F-Ficus deltoidea group (Ficus deltoidea 100 mg/kg + BPA 10 mg/kg). FC- Ficus deltoidea Control group (Ficus deltoidea 100 mg/kg)
