since post-menopausal females do not have significant estradiol feedback control of lh secretory activity , and since lh secretory activity in post-menopausal women ( in contrast to pre-menopausal females ) is more sensitive to the inhibitory actions of drugs which may affect adrenergic and dopaminergic pathways in brain , the findings obtained in this study do not support an acute alcohol effect upon hypothalamic-pituitary modulation of gonadotrophin release in humans .
