Cold exposure impairs the ovarian function of female rats. A Effects of cold exposure on body weight gain and food intake (n = 10). B Effects of cold exposure on the ovary coefficients (n = 10). C Serum levels of E2, FSH, P, and T in control and cold-exposed groups of female rats (n = 10). D and E Expression levels of ERβ and FSHR in ovarian tissue in cold-exposed and control groups of female rats (n = 6). Values are presented as the mean ± standard error. ^∗P < 0.05 and ^∗∗P < 0.01
