HPG Axis Modeling

Meaning

HPG Axis Modeling is the clinical and computational practice of creating a mathematical representation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal (HPG) axis’s dynamic function and feedback loops. This modeling allows clinicians to predict how changes in one variable, such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse frequency or sex steroid replacement dosage, will affect the entire reproductive and endocrine system. It is a powerful tool for optimizing personalized hormone therapy.
