Abstract
Phthalates are the largest group of environmental pollutants and are considered toxicant to the endocrine system. The present study was aimed to test the effect of in utero exposure of di(2‐ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) on Leydig cell steroidogenesis in F 1 male offspring's. Pregnant dams were oral gavaged with different doses (1, 10, and 100 mg/kg/day) of DEHP or olive oil during gestational Day 9–21. Serum testosterone (T) and estradiol (E 2 )...
