Mini-Review on the Possible Interconnections between the Gut-Brain Axis and the Infertility-Related Neuropsychiatric Comorbidities
Both the gut-brain axis (GBA) and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis remain an intriguing yet obscure network with a strong influence over other systems of organs. Recent reports have sought to describe the multitude of harmful stressors that may impact the HPA axis along with the interco...

description | Both the gut-brain axis (GBA) and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis remain an intriguing yet obscure network with a strong influence over other systems of organs. Recent reports have sought to describe the multitude of harmful stressors that may impact the HPA axis along with the interconnections between these. This has improved our knowledge of how the underlying mechanisms working to establish homeostasis are affected. A disruption to the HPA axis can amplify the chances of gastrointestinal deficiencies, whilst also increasing the risk of a wide spectrum of neuropsychiatric disorders. Thus, the influence of microorganisms found throughout the digestive tract possess the ability to affect both physiology and behaviour by triggering responses, which may be unfavourable. This is sometimes the case in of infertility. Numerous supplements have been formulated with the intention of rebalancing the gut microflora. Accordingly, the gut flora may alter the pharmacokinetics of drugs used as part of fertility treatments, potentially exacerbating the predisposition for various neurological disorders, regardless of the age and gender. |
