  • (20) In order to examine the effect that ovarian steroids have on this response nine, healthy women were tested twice at three time points in the menstrual cycle: early follicular, mid-cycle and late luteal phase with either d-FEN, a more specific 5-HT agent than the racemic mixture, or placebo.

Feu


Definition:

  • (n.) A free and gratuitous right to lands made to one for service to be performed by him; a tenure where the vassal, in place of military services, makes a return in grain or in money.

Example Sentences:
