Figure 2: Histological section of the ovarian tissue in rats (hematoxylin and eosin staining; magnification:×40). A: The normal control group shows primary follicle (PA), antral follicle (AF), and corpus luteum (CL) in the sections from ovarian tissue. B: The PCOS induction group shows multiple cystic follicles (CF) with thin granulosa layer and less number of corpus luteum (CL) in section. C: The clomiphene citrate group shows primary follicle with oocyte and antral follicle and follicles (F) in various stages of development. D: The 400 mg/kg Pushyanuga churna group shows primary follicle with no abnormalities, better tissue arrangements, and corpus luteum (CL). E: The 100 mg/kg novel herbal combination group shows follicles (F) with oocyte along with corpus luteum (CL), and granulosa layer (G). F: The 200 mg/kg novel herbal combination group shows developing follicle with oocyte and corpus luteum (CL), and better tissue arrangements in section. G: The 200 mg/kg syrup formulation of novel herbal combination group shows multiple growing follicle with no abnormalities and corpus luteum (CL). PA: primary follicle; AF: antral follicle; CL: corpus luteum; F: follicle; A: antral cavity; G: granulosa layer; CF: cystic follicle.
