I disclose a method of treating a reproductive endocrine disorder in a patient, including coupling at least one electrode to at least one portion of a cranial nerve of the patient; and applying an electrical signal to said cranial nerve using said electrode to treat said reproductive endocrine disorder. Among the reproductive endocrine disorders which may be treated by the method are gonadal dysgenesis, hypogonadism, hypergonadism, delayed puberty, amenorrhea, infertility, premature menopause, and polycystic ovarian disease. |
