The results showed that, on comparative assessment of basal FSH levels in control subjects vs. Groups of schizophrenics and depressives, there were significant decreases of basal FSH levels in both groups. While on comparing the basal FSH level in both schizophrenics and depressives before and after antipsychotic therapy, there were no significant differences between pre and post-medication states
