We aimed to evaluate the uterine and ovarian volumes of owl monkeys in different age groups with different numbers of live births and to analyze the interaction between both.
We performed pelvic ultrasound exams to compare the uterine measurements with weight, age (infant, juvenile, subadult, young adults, and adults) and the number of live births (nulliparous, primiparous, and multiparous) and to compare the ovarian measurements with weight and age.
The uterine volume (UV) was directly proportional to the number of parturitions, which was the most important factor in the uterine growth of adult females (P < 0.05). The body weight and age of the animals showed a high positive correlation with UV (r = 0.5354, r = 0.6489, P < 0.01), respectively. The volume of the ovaries grew in proportion to the age of the females (P < 0.05). Puberty was the period of greatest uterine and ovarian growth.
我们旨在评估不同年龄组、不同活产数的夜猴的子宫和卵巢体积，并分析两者之间的相互作用。
我们进行盆腔超声检查，以比较子宫测量值与体重、年龄（婴儿、幼年、亚成年、青年和成年）以及活产数（未生育、初产和经产），并比较卵巢测量值与体重和年龄。
子宫体积（UV）与分娩次数成正比，这是成年雌性子宫生长的最重要因素（P < 0.05）。动物的体重和年龄与UV分别呈高度正相关（r = 0.5354，r = 0.6489，P < 0.01）。卵巢体积随雌性年龄增长而成比例增加（P < 0.05）。青春期是子宫和卵巢生长最旺盛的时期。
