After prolonged exposure to oestrogenic pastures or 6 months treatment with oestradiol, histological changes were similar and best measured by the number of cervical crypts; cervical folds were wider; there were greater areas of lamina propria, and more cervical glands. The results provide a basis for the measurement of severity of oestrogenic effect in the field or experimentally.
