Edifenphos, an organophosphate fungicide, was administered to hemicastrated albino rats intraperitoneally for 15 consecutive days in graded doses of 2 to 8 mg/kg body weight. In the oil-treated hemicastrated control group, ovarian weight and total number of healthy and atretic follicles were significantly higher than the same parameters in sham-operated control animals, and the estrous cycle was normal. Treatment with 2, 4, 6, or 8 mg/kg/d edifenphos significantly decreased ovarian weight (-6.75, -9.79, -18.71, and -34.13 percent, respectively) below that of the controls. Although treatment with 2 or 4 mg/kg/d edifenphos did not change the number of healthy and atretic follicles, a dosage of 4 mg/kg/d significantly decreased the number and duration of estrous cycles. Treatment with 6 or 8 mg/kg/d, however, significantly decreased the number and duration of different phases of the estrous cycle as well. In all treated groups, the weights of the thymus and uterus were significantly reduced when compared with those of hemicastrated oil-treated control animals.
