SUMMARY In mated guinea-pigs one uterine horn was rendered sterile by ligation of the oviduct 2 or 3 days after finding spermatozoa in the vaginal smear. Two glass beads were inserted into the sterile horn on each of days 3–12 and on day 14 in experimental animals but not in controls. At autopsy on day 20 large corpora lutea were present in both ovaries of the control animals. The presence of beads that had been introduced on days 3 and 4 and on days 10–14 resulted in marked regression of the corpora lutea in the adjacent ovary, in the absence of a decidual reaction in the uterus, while luteal enlargement typical of pregnancy occurred in the contralateral ovary. Beads inserted on days 5–8 caused decidualization in the sterile horn but did not induce premature luteal regression in the ipsilateral ovary.
