Table 1
The grouping of Wistar rats in this study (n = 6 in each group).
| | Groups | Month 0 (commencement of ovariectomy) | Month 3 (start gavage) | Month 5 (end gavage) |
| | Control | Not done | Not done | Not done | | Sham | Done | PBS as a daily gavage | Done | | Silymarin (50 mg/kg) | Done | Silymarin as a daily gavage | Done | | Silymarin (100 mg/kg) | Done | Silymarin as a daily gavage | Done | | Silymarin (150 mg/kg) | Done | Silymarin as a daily gavage | Done |
