| Abstract |
The causes and consequences of the age-related decline in reproductive function are discussed in detail. It is concluded that aging in the female's reproductive system is a process initiated by the 'organizational' effects of estrogen. The consequences of altered hormonal levels in the older organism are far-reaching, affecting a number of physiological functions. Such changes have an obvious impact on the older organism's response to treatment with environmental toxins. |
