Reproductive function is often associated only with the gonads, both male and female, which
work together for the sole purpose of procreating, according to lay perception and …

Reproductive functions are maintained by a complex hormonal regulatory network called the
hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis, which is under the hierarchical control of a …

▪ Abstract Mammalian reproduction depends on the coordinated expression of behavior with
precisely timed physiological events that are fundamentally different in males and females …

Reproductive function is regulated by the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-
stimulating hormone from the pituitary and the steroid hormones from the gonads. The …

Sex hormones have been implicated in neurite outgrowth, synaptogenesis, dendritic
branching, myelination and other important mechanisms of neural plasticity. Here we review …

The view that sex hormones are involved exclusively in the regulation of endocrine functions
and mating behavior is an outdated concept. A large body of literature indicates that sex …

Women constitute half of the world's population, yet neuroscience research does not serve
the sexes equally. Fifty years of preclinical animal evidence documents the tightly-coupled …

Female reproduction is an interplay between the hypothalamus, pituitary, and ovaries. While
the gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) neuron in the hypothalamus regulates …

In female mammals, sexual maturation is initiated by a change in the release pattern of
pituitary gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) …

The hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axis undergoes a number of changes
throughout the reproductive life cycle that are responsible for the development, puberty …
