What is hypogonadotropic?
Hypogonadotropic means containing low levels of gonadotropins. Gonadotropins are hormones from the brain that control the secretion of sex hormones.
What ias the difference between gonadal hormone and gonadotropin?
Gonadal hormones are those hormones that are actually released from the gonads (ex. estrogen, testosterone). Gonadotropins are hormones that CAUSE the release of gonadal hormones, gonadotropins are released from the anterior pituitary gland(tropin means "releasing" so gonadotropin is a gonad hormone releasing hormone) an example of this would be FSH-- follicle stimulating hormone.
What is the relationship between the pituitary gland and the ovaries?
The pituitary gland releases hormones (gonadotropins) that control both the reproductive and endocrine function of the ovaries.
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 endocrine gland helps regulate the release of gonadotropin and controls body pigmentation?
The pituitary gland helps regulate the release gonadotropins. It also regulates melanocyte-stimulating hormones that produce the melanin for body pigmentation.
What LH and FSH known together?
gonadotropins
What would be a symptom of a decrease in gonadotropins?
A decrease in gonadotropins is called hypogonadotropism. The effects of hypogonadotropism include, loss of body hair, loss of muscle and lowered libido.
What are gonadotropins?
FSH and LH are gonadotrophins.They are secreted by pitutory.
Which is a description of gonadotropins?
Secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland .
What stimulates the development of eggs in the ovary and the sperm in the testes?
gonadotropins
What gland helps regulate the release of gonadotropin and controls the body pigmentation?
The pituitary gland helps regulate the release of gonadotropins (hormones that affect the gonads) and also plays a role in controlling body pigmentation through the production of melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH).
What hormone leads to the maturation of both sperm and egg?
The first hormone that is involved in the maturation of the egg and sperm is the gonadotropin - releasing hormone(GnHR). This hormone is secreted by the hypothalamus, and it stimulates release of two gonadotropin hormones released by the pituatury gland. The leutenizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). And these two pituatury gland gonadotropins are the key hormones for the maturation of egg and sperm.
