Introduction: is a well-known medicinal plant with various health benefits. This study was designed to evaluate the administration of Indonesian maceration for its effect on promoting growth and development of the ovary and uterus before mating in female albino rats.
Material And Methods: A total of 15 female Sprague Dawley rats in their dioestrous phase were assigned into three different groups: the Control group (mineral water); the Cur-Low group (mineral water with 1% maceration) and the Cur-High group (mineral water with 5% maceration).
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effects of Indonesian basil maceration on the reproductive health of female albino rats, particularly focusing on ovarian development and uterine growth.
- Fifteen female rats were divided into three groups: a control group receiving mineral water, one group receiving 1% basil maceration, and another receiving 5% for 20 days, during which hormone levels and reproductive organ characteristics were measured.
- The results showed that while follicle-stimulating hormone levels remained consistent across groups, both estrogen and progesterone levels were significantly higher in basil-treated groups, leading to increased uterine weight and vascularization.
