Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce this Special Issue, which will highlight the latest research in reproductive physiology and endocrinology. The foundation of modern therapy lies in a deep understanding of the biological processes occurring in the reproductive system under physiological and pathological conditions. Although these studies are called basic science, they use advanced molecular methods to explore changes at the genetic and epigenetic levels, as well as the influence of environmental factors on these changes.
In addition, the study of reproductive endocrinology cannot be ignored; reproductive endocrine disorders can occur due to abnormal changes in any part of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis and can include a variety of symptoms, including infertility, hirsutism, virilization, oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea in women, and infertility and changes in sexual function in men. In particular, understanding the role of hormones and their regulatory mechanisms in infertility is vital. We will focus on the effects of obesity, hypothyroidism, polycystic ovary syndrome, reproductive hormones, and IVF on reproductive health.
This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in reproductive physiology and reproductive endocrinology to help us better understand the functioning of the reproductive system and reveal the processes leading to its dysfunction. We encourage the submission of original research articles and reviews, especially those that provide results at the molecular level.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
