Body weight over time studied on rats treated with one to four sessions with saline (C, unfilled circle) or buserelin (B, filled circle). One session consists of 5 days of treatment, with one daily subcutaneous injection of saline or buserelin, followed by 3 weeks of recovery. All rats were healthy and gained weight throughout the experimentation. At the end of the second and third treatments (weeks 5 and 9), buserelin-treated rats showed a transient increase in weight compared with saline-treated rats. Results are presented as means and standard error of the mean (SEM) and analyzed by Student's t test, C = 8–24 and B = 12–36. Statistical significance is indicated by **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001
