Hormones are produced and then circulate through the body systemically. The target organ (in this case the Ovary) has receptors that react to the influence of the hormone through direct interaction of the hormone and the receptor.
FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) CG (chorionic gonadotrophin) and LH (Leutinizing Hormone) along with progesterone, prostiglandin and estrogen
are hormones that create feedback between the pituitary gland (brain) and the ovaries creating the reproductive cycle.

What hormone stimulates the development of the egg cells and ovary?
Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
Where is the hormone inhibin produced?
Inhibin is produced in the Sertoli cells in the testis and in the granulosa cells in the ovary.
What are target cells for releasing hormones in?
in the hypothalamus is what my book says:) .............from what I have read the releasing hormones originate in the hypothalamus, but the target cells are found in the anterior pituitary gland.
What gland produces the egg cells and and hormones?
The hypothalamus in the brain releases Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone to the pituitary gland, located in your brain behind the eyes. The pituitary gland releases Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH), which go to the ovaries. FSH stimulates the selection of an egg from the ovary, and a surge of LH release stimulates the release of the egg for fertilzation. In the ovary, Theca cells release Testosterone which travels to nearby Granulosa cells which convert the testosterone to estrogen. Theca cells also make progesterone, which is necessary for growing the endometrium, which is what bleeds during the menstrual cycle.
Where are the target cells for follicle-stimulating hormone?
Hello Both are produced in the anterior pituitary gland as well as PRL, ACTH, TSH and GH. Oxitocin and ADH are SECRETED from the posterior pituitary and produced in the hypothalamus
Does sex hormones release the egg from ovary?
Sex hormone do not release the egg from the ovary. Ovary produces the sex hormones. The egg is released by the FSH or follicle stimulating hormone released by anterior pituitary.
In which organ are egg cells made?
in the ovary
A hormone secreted from the pituitary that is essential for egg release from the ovary?
FSH or Follicle Stimulating Hormone
What glands produce testosterone?
The interstitial cells of the testes produce the hormone testosterone.
What is follicle stimulating hormone target tissue?
ovary and testis
