[Male sexual behavior in thyroxine toxicosis]
Abstract:
A shortening of mounting latency and postejaculatory period revealed an activation of sexual behaviour's motivational components in thyroxin toxicosis in male rats. A negative correlation was found between the postejaculatory period duration and the thyroxin level. The estradiol concentration increased whereas the testosterone one decreased in rats and was followed by a lowering of ejaculations in the test. The serotonin contribution to the mechanism of activation of sexual behaviour's motivational component in thyroxin toxicosis, is discussed.
