SUMMARY A dose‐dependent increase in the mass of flank organ hair was produced in 11‐week‐old female hamsters by subcutaneously injected testosterone propionate. The mass of androgen‐stimulated flank organ hair was decreased bilaterally in a dose‐dependent manner by cyproterone acetate applied topically to one flank organ of each hamster.
