It is well established that pubertal activation of the reproductive axis and maintenance of
fertility are critically dependent on the magnitude of body energy reserves and the metabolic …

Reproductive maturation and function are sensitive to the metabolic state of the organism
and the magnitude of body fuel reserves; hence, conditions ranging from energy …

Albeit essential for perpetuation of species, reproduction is an energy-demanding function
that can be adjusted to body metabolic status. Reproductive maturation and function can be …

Puberty, as the end-point of a complex series of maturational events affecting the
components of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, is gated by the state of body …

As an essential function for perpetuation of species, reproduction, including puberty onset, is
sensitive to the size of body energy stores and the metabolic state of the organism …

The involvement of environmental factors such as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in
the timing of onset of puberty is suggested by recent changes in age at onset of puberty and …

There is a strong association between nutrition and reproduction. Chronic dietary energy
deficits as well as energy surpluses can impair reproductive capacity. Metabolic status …

Achievement of sexual maturation and maintenance of fertility in adulthood are functions that
are sensitive to the metabolic status of the organism, particularly the magnitude of fat …

Reproductive function in mammals, defined as the capacity to generate viable male and
female gametes, and to support pregnancy and lactation selectively in the female, is …
