Brainstem Neurons Are the "Missing Link" Between Stress and Infertility
Scientists suggest that a new study identifies the “missing link between stress and infertility”. The research has confirmed in laboratory testing that a population of nerve cells near the base of the brain – the RFRP neurons – become active in stressful situations and then suppress the reproductive system.
