Comparative evaluation of tamoxifen and red clover extract on reproductive and hepatic function in female Trichogaster trichopterus: a translational endocrine toxicology study

Key Points

• Tamoxifen improves reproductive function more effectively than red clover extract, indicating potential benefits.
• In a controlled environment, tamoxifen increased reproductive success by 25%, while red clover had no significant impact.
• Comparative evaluation utilized a controlled study design, assessing reproductive and hepatic endpoints.
• Findings highlight the need for further investigation into endocrine interactions in aquatic species.
