Abstract
The present findings provide evidence that prenatal environmental stress can “demasculinize” the behavior, brain anatomy and hormone secretion in the male fetuses expressed when they reach maturity. Moreover, the nature of the maternal care received by neonates can affect the behavior and physiology that they express at maturity.
