[The fertility performance (litter characteristics) of laboratory mice over 6 generations after the administration of chlormadinone acetate and human chorionic gonadotropin].

Chlormadinone-acetate and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) were tested for their action on fertility (litter parameters) through 6 generations of laboratory mice. The fertility parameters recorded were in no way indicative of any fertility-depressing effect. HCG acted positively on ovulation rates and also had a somewhat favourable impact on body weight development of the mice involved in testing.
