Chapter 3, Problem 8RQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: Whether the statement, “Energy deficits that characterize functional hypothalamic amenorrhea appear to suppress the activity of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)” is true or false.
Introduction: Hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and testes are involved in the endocrine regulation activity of male reproduction. Hypothalamus initially secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) that stimulates the anterior pituitary gland to secrete follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
