Clearly our minds are an orchestra of numerous elements. Any of of these elements not " playing" properly spoils the music(optimum mental function). I will be 47 soon. Over 30 years ago I felt my mood and mental difficulties were caused by a dyregulation in my HPG axis. To this day I still do. A scientist in 1898 proposed a theory and treatment for HPG dysregulation. It pertaind to mood and cognitive problems in cases of menopause. In the 1920's estrogen compounds became available. Now in 2006 the HPG axis is still not understood. It's encouraging to see the increasing focus on HPG dysregulation as the key to understanding cognitive problems in a number of disorders. A study in Feb of 2005 proposed that supplementing with Inhibin would be a prudent course to take in the future in an attempt to reregulate HPG axi's. Evidence in my own case back in 1987 led me to suspect I may not produce enough Inhibin.
Through the years knowledge of Inhibin its subunits, Activin, Follistatin,FSH,LH,testosterone,estrogen, etc., and the HPG axis overall has grown more and more complex. In time many of us will be treated to correct our HPG axis. Like I stated earlier estrogen treatment started in the 1920's, but the mode of action is still is not known. Research is vigorously looking for alternatives to this intervention in the HPG axis because of studies completed in 2004 found estrogen treatments to cause much higher rates of various health problems.
I keep trying AD's(Emsam now), with very little success. My HPG axis is dysregulated also my HPA axis(Dex. non-supressor), so it is not likely I will find a effective treatment until these are addressed.
We sure are in a bizzar situation. Best wishes.
