an increasing trendP = 0.007
After 30 days implantation, T concentrations showed an increasing trend but were only different between the control group (0.28 ± 0.02 ng/mL) and the 25 mg/kg group (0.85 ± 0.15 ng/mL, P = 0.007) and not with the 5 mg/kg group (0.52 ± 0.07 ng/mL, P = 0.126) ( Figure 5A ).
