Where are gonadotropins produced?
Gonadotropins are produced by Anterior Pituitary gland situated at the base of brain, in what is called as pituitary Fosse.
Which is a description of gonadotropins?
Secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland .
The secretion of anterior pituitary gonadotropins is enhanced?
The secretion of anterior pituitary gonadotropins, such as luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), is enhanced primarily by the action of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus. Increased levels of GnRH stimulate the anterior pituitary to release these hormones, which play crucial roles in regulating reproductive functions, including the menstrual cycle in females and spermatogenesis in males. Factors such as pulsatile GnRH release, feedback from sex steroids, and overall reproductive health can also influence the secretion of these gonadotropins.
What is an anterior pituitary?

What gland contains the anterior pituitary?

What hormone stimulates the gonads?
The luteinizing hormone (LH) is the hormone that stimulates the gonads (ovaries in females and testes in males) to produce sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone. LH is released by the pituitary gland in response to signals from the hypothalamus.
Where does the growth hormone synthesize?

What is another word for the anterior pituitary?
Ventral pituitary :)... Adenohypophesis is another name for anterior pituitary. Neurohypophesis is another name for posterior pituitary. :)
