Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 1002-1016, May 2026.
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Women with PCOS have a later menopausal transition and a lower prevalence of menopausal symptoms at age 46: A population‐based birth cohort study

Findings from a population‐based cohort study indicate that late peri−/postmenopausal status, as well as menopausal symptoms, were less prevalent in women with PCOS at age 46, supporting the hypothesis of prolonged ovarian function and a delayed menopausal transition with this condition.

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page 493-506, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease, but the effects on cerebrovascular function are unknown. In this pilot study, we sought to compare cerebrovascular perfusion, pulsatility, reactivity and metabolism between women with PCOS and healthy volunteers using MRI, and ...
