Mature female giant pandas usually ovulate once a year. This is followed by an obligatory luteal phase, consisting of a long-lasting corpus luteum dormancy phase (CLD; primary increase in progestogens) and a much shorter active luteal phase (AL; seco...

Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) seems to be associated with increased ovarian sympathetic nerve activity and in rodent models of PCOS reducing the sympathetic drive to the ovary, through denervation or neuromodulation, improves ovulati...
