The aim of this study was to investigate the possible effects of ethanol extracts of TB on serum levels of estrogen and progesterone in adult female rat. METHODS: 35 female Wistar rats were used in this experimental study. Animals weighing 180 ± 20 g were divided into 5 groups (each group consisted of7 rats. normal control group with no treatment, sham group received normal saline and experimental groups (1,2,3groups) were injected i.p. with 110, 220 and 330 mg/kg of TB for 14 days respectively. All groups at the end of the 14th day were bled and the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone hormone levels were measured. FINDINGS: According to the results of serum levels of progesterone and estrogen, 220 mg/kg extract of TB (16±0.75), estrogen concentrations increased compared with the control group (12.2±0.98) and sham (12±1.14) (p<0.01). Also 220 mg/kg of TB (39.1±1.55) compared to controls (15±0.83) and sham (15.1±1.2) increased significantly (p<0.01). CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that TB can increase significantly the serum levels of estrogen and
