What are the male sex hormone?
Testosterone, oestrogen, Fsh, LH,prolactinThere are two primary ones: Testosterone, and androgen.
Is the emotional state of the female alter output of FSH and LH?
yes produces progesterone and testosterone
What hormones bring about puberty?
The main hormones that are involved in puberty are testosterone for males and oestrogen (can also be spelt 'estrogen') and progesterone for females. These are released from a gland in the brain called the pituitary gland. Other hormones include follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH).
What are the important horomones invovled in the control of reproduction?
GnRH, LH, FSH, inhibin, testosterone (in males), estrogens and progesterone (in females).
What gland secretes sperm?
The pituitary gland secretes FSH and LH. FSH is in charge of stimulating the gonads to produce the gametes (eggs and sperms). However, in males testosterone is needs to produce "good" sperm. LH stimulates a specific group of cells called Leydig cells (intersitial cells) to produce testosterone.
Which hormones exerts its effect primarily on the reproductive organs?
(FSH) Follicle-stimulating hormone. (LH) Luteinising hormone. Oestrogen. Testosterone.
Development of sperm is stimulated by?
Being healthy is the only real stimulant of production of spermatozoa. (Sperm cells).
What is testosterone stimulated by?
To stimulate testosterone production, the hypothalamus releases a substance to the pituitary gland called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). This hormone, in turn, causes the gland to produce two other hormones, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), collectively known as gonadotropins. LH is released into the bloodstream where it travels to the male testes and triggers the production of testosterone from cholesterol. If this process continues until the testosterone level becomes too high, the pituitary slows the release of LH so production slows down. FSH is similarly involved in the increase and decrease in sperm production.
How will FSH and LH be carried to the ovaries?
It is secreted by the hypofyse into the bloodstream. Via your blood the hormones arrive at the ovaries.
What are FSH and LH Pituitary Hormones?
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is a hormone synthesised and secreted by gonadotropes in the anterior pituitary gland. FSH and LH act synergistically in reproduction: * In women, in the ovary FSH stimulates the growth of immature Graafian follicles to maturation. As the follicle grows, it releases inhibin, which shuts off the FSH production. * In men, FSH enhances the production of androgen-binding protein by the Sertoli cells of the testes, and is critical for spermatogenesis. Luteinizing hormone (LH, also known as lutropin) is a hormone synthesized and secreted by gonadotropes in the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. In concert with the other pituitary gonadotropin follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) it is necessary for proper reproductive function: * In the female, an acute rise of LH - the LH surge - triggers ovulation. * In the male, where LH had also been called Interstitial Cell Stimulating Hormone (ICSH), it stimulates Leydig cell production of testosterone.
What hormones does pituitary produce?
FSH and LH.
What inhibits secretion of LH and FSH?
Progesterone
