Morphological changes in rat ovarian tissues from the control, PCOS, and CC groups. This set of images presents histopathological sections of ovarian tissue, stained with hematoxylin–eosin (H&E). A At 40× magnification, images of ovarian tissue from the control group show multiple corpora lutea (CL) and antral follicles (Antf). The scale bar represents 200 μm. B At 200× magnification, image of an antral follicle structure in the control group, illustrating the oocyte (O), corona radiate (CR) and granulosa cell layers (GCLs). The scale bar represents 40 μm. C At 40× magnification view of ovarian tissue from the PCOS group, which exhibited numerous cystic follicles (CFs), atretic follicles (Afs), CLs and Antfs. The scale bar represents 200 μm. D At 40× magnification, images of ovarian tissue from the positive control group, showing the CL, Antf and Af. The scale bar represents 200 μm
