As the birth weights of the offspring of our experimental and control groups were similar, it can be concluded that the reduction of ovarian follicles after prenatal exposure to D-galactose is due to the ovotoxicity of galactose. The results of our final study will provide more information about the rat POI model induced by prenatal exposure to D-galactose.
