* Under the influence of oestrogen, sensory inputs such as [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Pre-copulatory_Behaviour_- Anatomy & Physiology#Vomeronasal_Organ|olfaction]], [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Attractivity_Behaviour_- Anatomy & Physiology#Auditory_Signals|audition]], [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Attractivity_Behaviour_- Anatomy & Physiology#Visual_Signals|vision]] and [[Reproductive_Behaviour_-_Pre-copulatory_Behaviour_- Anatomy & Physiology#Tactile_Stimulation|tactility]] send neural messages to the [[Hypothalamus_- Anatomy & Physiology#Hypothalamus|hypothalamus]] .

* Sensory afferent neurons synapse directly on neurons in the [[Hypothalamus_- Anatomy & Physiology#Hypothalamus|ventromedial and pre-optic hypothalamic regions]].
* Sensory afferent neurons synapse directly on neurons in the [[Hypothalamus_- Anatomy & Physiology#Hypothalamus|ventromedial and pre-optic hypothalamic regions]].
* These sensory inputs cause neurons in the hypothalamus to release behaviour specific peptides that serve as neurotransmitters.
