AI simplified
Abstract
Circadian rhythms are linked to the regulation of reproductive functions and may significantly impact fertility.
- Circadian rhythms are endogenously generated cycles that influence various physiological processes.
- Disruptions in these rhythms can affect key reproductive processes such as ovulation and sperm production.
- The review integrates findings from both animal models and human studies regarding circadian influences on fertility.
- Core clock genes interact with hormonal regulation and environmental factors to maintain reproductive health.
- Maintaining circadian integrity is critical for optimal reproductive outcomes.
