This paper is a short review of results obtained in the ovariectomized rhesus monkey relating to the interactions between the immune and adrenal/gonadal axes. The results indicate causative relationships between the activation of the adrenal axis and the acute suppression of the gonadal axis.

Key words: immune system/luteinizing hormone/menstrual cycle/stress
