👉 GnRH, which stands for Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone, is a hormone released by the pituitary gland in the brain that regulates growth and development throughout the body. It plays a crucial role in determining an embryo's sex. Its specific function varies between individuals but generally involves stimulating or inhibiting various processes related to sexual development. MPS, on the other hand, stands for Major Sex Predisposition and is a test used to assess whether a person has certain characteristics of gender at birth. The test measures the presence of certain DNA patterns or alleles in a small sample of DNA extracted from a mother's womb during pregnancy. Paeae, which means "abnormal," refers to specific sex characteristics that differ from what is commonly expected based on typical genetic and sexual traits. Commonly observed abnormalities include: - Abnormally large testes (larger than the average size) - Abnormally small or absent genitalia - Abnormally short sperm count - Abnormally long secondaries in females Understanding these terms can help in understanding different aspects of human sexuality, from conception to pregnancy and beyond.
