We're attempting to screen some mutant mice for sexual behavior, but
can't get the females to be receptive. We initially ovariectomize the
females then treat them with estrogen and progesterone to induce
receptivity. We've tried a variety of doses and none seem to work. Has
anyone tried this or know about sexual behavior in mice? There's a lot
of information on rats, but it doesn't seem to carry over directly to
mice. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
