the head of Ichilov Hospital's

department. Dr. Daniel Elon.

pregnancy in laboratory animals.
Joint research carried out with the
the
Hadassah University Hospital
shows that the ingredient can
postpone or prevent ovulation.
Injected into female rats, it
postponed ovulation by 24 hours.
Larger doses prevented ovulation
for up to 60 days in female
monkeys.
