Default Re: ACTH stimulation test--any possible side-effects ?
I dont know if this any relevance but whe i was looking how Prolactin Inhibits GNRH it led me to this hormone Corticotropin-releasing hormone, apparently Corticotropin-releasing hormone inhibits GNRH at the hypothalmus. ACTH causes a Corticotropin-releasing hormone release also, and cortisol shuts its production down through the negative feedback system. Prolactin also stimulates Corticotropin-releasing hormone.

Don't know how this will help, but just wanted to share what i learned :-)
