* Under the influence of oestrogen, sensory inputs such as [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Pre-copulatory_Behaviour_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Vomeronasal_Organ|olfaction]], [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Attractivity_Behaviour_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Auditory_Signals|audition]], [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Attractivity_Behaviour_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Visual_Signals|vision]] and [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Pre-copulatory_Behaviour_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Tactile_Stimulation|tactility]] send neural messages to the [[Endocrine_System_-_Hypothalamus_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology#Hypothalamus|hypothalamus]] .

* Sensory afferent neurons synapse directly on neurons in the ventromedial and pre-optic hypothalamic regions.
