Summary Introduction

To analyze:

The hypothesis that the pill affects the normal hormone secretion and signaling in the body.

Introduction:

The pill’s mechanism was confirmed by the scientists by measuring the plasma hormone levels before and after the use of the pill. Single asterisk (*) signifies P < 0.05, double asterisks (&) signify P **lt; 0.01, and triple asterisks (&*) signify P **lt; 0.001.

The given statistical data represents a drop in the level of all the four hormones after the pill ingestion. The pills affected the hormone signaling drastically, thereby decreasing the levels of the hormones. In all the four bar graphs of the hormones, the hormone levels drop.
