Abstract：
:The influence of neonatal androgen on the potential to exhibit feminine sexual behavior was investigated. Male rats castrated on Day 0 but not those castrated on Day 4 or later showed hop/darting, ear wiggling, and lordotic behavior in response to treatment with estrogen and progesterone in adulthood at a frequency equal to that of females. Neonatal treatment with testosterone propionate (1 mg/rat for 4 days) abolished the capacity to show these behaviors. In subsequent experiments, involving castration of male rats at 0 or 4 hr after cesarean delivery, the effect of the postnatal surge of testicular secretions on the expression of female sexual behavior was investigated. No differences were seen in the frequency of hop/darting, ear wiggling, and receptivity between males castrated immediately or 4 hr after delivery. In a preference test where the experimental male could choose between an estrous female and a sexually active male, the neonatally castrated males preferred the company of a male when treated with estrogen and progesterone. The implantation of testosterone resulted in a preference for an estrous female. It was concluded that testicular secretions in the newborn male influence adult sexual orientation and suppress the ability to show proceptive and receptive behaviors.
