Abstract in brief

  • There is a two-way relationship between the stress response system (HPA axis) and the reproductive system (HPG axis), where activation of one can affect the other's function, and chronic stress can inhibit the production of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone.
  • Changes in maternal care can impact the development of the offspring’s stress and reproductive systems, influencing their adult behavior, hormone receptor expression, and sexual strategies.
  • Sex differences and hormones, especially estrogen, influence how the HPA axis responds to stress, with females often showing heightened stress responses due to mechanisms involving serotonin receptors and hormonal modulation, as seen in studies with monkeys.]
