Abstract

In this chapter we treated the major neuroendocrine systems and their role in health and stress-related disorders, such as depression, PTSD, infertility, or eating disorders. It becomes evident that neuroendocrine systems are tightly intertwined with each other and perturbations in one system may cause multiple dysregulations in the others. Environmental events, and stress in particular, have profound effects on proper neuroendocrine functioning and may thus affect disease onset, maintenance, or progression.
