What does the anterior pituitary gland release about the time of ovulation?
The anterior pituitary gland releases luteinizing hormone (LH) about the time of ovulation. LH surge triggers the release of mature eggs from the ovary and stimulates the production of progesterone in the ovary.
What anterior pituitary hormone causes the enlarged ovarian follicle to rupture and release a mature ovum?
Luteinizing hormone released by the anterior pituitary causes the enlarged ovarian follicle to rupture.
What hormone controls the release of anterior pititary gondotropins?
Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)The anterior pituitary gland is controlled via portal system of veins from the Hypothalamus. Directly the Hypothalamus secretes GnRH (gonadtropin releasing hormone) to the anterior pituitary gland to stimulate the release of the gonadtropins FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (lutenizing hormone). Testosterone is a male sex hormone that is synthesized by cells stimulated by LH & FSH
What does pituitary gland have to do with male and female reproduction?
The pituitary gland plays a crucial role in both male and female reproduction. It produces hormones such as luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), which are essential for the development and maturation of eggs in females and sperm in males. In females, LH triggers ovulation and the release of eggs, while FSH stimulates the growth and development of ovarian follicles. In males, LH stimulates the production of testosterone, while FSH promotes the production of sperm in the testes.
What endocrine gland is the follicle stimulating hormone released from?
hypothalamus controls pituitary gland hormones by releasing its hormones namely growth hormone releasing factor ,somatostatins,cortical releasing factor,thyroid releasing factor,prolactin releasing factor,prolactin release inhibiting factor.,gonadotrophin releasing factor, etc.thus the released gonadotrophin acts on pituitary gland ,.pituitary is endocrinally divided into 3 parts in which anterior one called as adenohypophysis,while posterior one called as neurohypophysis,and middle one of no endocrinal use.adenohypophysis stimulate it to release follicle stimulating hormone and LH hormone.the follicle stimulating hormone acts on testis and ovary and stimulates them to release testosterone and progesterone.thus follicle stimulating hormone released by adenohypophysis.[anterior pituitary]
What does the anterior pituitary gland release about the time of ovulation?
The anterior pituitary gland releases luteinizing hormone (LH) about the time of ovulation. LH surge triggers the release of mature eggs from the ovary and stimulates the production of progesterone in the ovary.
How does GnRH get from the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary and what effects does it have on the pituitary?
The hypophysial portal system carries gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus to the anterior pituitary. It stimulates the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the anterior pituitary.
What hormone stimulates the gonads?
The release of Follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) and Luteinizing hormone(LH) stimulates cells in the testes to produce Testosterone.
What stimulate estrogen?
Oestrogen stimulates the hormone LH. LH is secreted in pituitary gland and stimulates the release of an egg
What stimulates the secretion of estrogen?
Oestrogen stimulates the hormone LH. LH is secreted in pituitary gland and stimulates the release of an egg
Which hormone stimulates egg release?
Ovulation, that is a process by which a mature ovarian follicle releases an ovum, is triggered by the spike in the amount of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) released from the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
What structure secretes LH?
LH is produced in the anterior pituitary gland.
The surge in LH secretion from the anterior pituitary that causes ovulation can be partially explained by the?
positive feedback of estradiol that increases the release of LH
How can FSH be the cause of not producing eggs?
FSH, secreted by the Pituitary gland,stimulates the secretion of Oestrogen from the ovaries, Oestrogen in turn stimulates the secretion of LH by the pituitary and inhibits the secretion of FSH, LH then stimulates ovulation (the release of an egg). Without FSH this chain reaction does not happen.
What hormone stimulates the development of a follicle in the ovary?
Leutinizing hormone (LH) is the hormone that stimulates a follicle to develop a mature egg. LH and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) work together to regulate egg production and ovulation in females.
FSH and LH are two hormones produced by the?
Pituitary Gland
Is gonadotropins part of anterior pituitary?
gonadatropin realeasing hormone is produced by hypothalmus. Signals anterior pituitary to produce LH and FSH
