Many if not most of the factors that are involved with cognition are multifunctional. Inhibins and Activins, early on were thought to only regulate FSH. Now with identified receptor sites in the adrenal cortex, hippocampus and many othe places, its clear they have wide rangeing roles.

"But complicates matters when you present a further challenge of correspondence in biological psychiatry"? Not sure what you are saying Squiggles.
I sense that maybe I am not expressing myself well to you. In a nutshell, tests to diagnose and treatments to correct HPG and HPA axis dysregulation is on the horizon. It will be the the appropriate treatment that many of us have been looking for. What percentage of present sufferers that this is the key to their disorder I would speculate as high as 60%.
