The technique of microdialysis has been applied extensively in neurobiological research. However, its potential as a tool for research in tissues other than the brain has not been fully explored. This article describes some of the situations in which microdialysis has been employed for studies in reproductive physiology and behavior. The examples have been chosen to give the reader a sense of the potential of the technique, its strengths, and some of its limitations.
