Effects of prenatal stress on the estrous cycle of female offspring as adults. 1978

L R Herrenkohl, and J A Politch

Stress during gestation significantly increased estrous cycle length in female offspring as adults, primarily by lengthening the estrus-metestrus stage. Therefore, prenatal stress may disturb the hormonal milieu of the female fetus during a critical hypothalamic differentiation stage.
