Abstract: Abstract Background The human hypothalamic–pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axis is the regulatory center for pubertal development. This axis involves six G‐protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) encoded by KISS1R, TACR3, PROKR2, GNRHR, LHCGR, and FSHR. Methods Previous studies have… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/ijem.ijem_47_21
Abstract: Background: Various hormonal parameters used to differentiate between different causes of pubertal disorders are invasive, cumbersome, and has variable sensitivity and specificity. Thus, the use of a noninvasive test like urinary gonadotropin for the diagnosis… read more here.
