The interstitial cell-stimulating hormone stimulates ovulation in the female and production of the female sex hormone progesterone. In the male, it stimulates the secretion of testosterone.
The luteinizing hormone stimulates ovulation in the female and production of the female sex hormone progesterone.
luteinizing hormone (LH)
luteinizing hormone

luteinizing hormone
LH Leutenizing hormone- it stimulates the release of the oocyte into the fallopian tube, i.e. ovulation. [Do not confuse with FSH- follicle stimulating hormone, which stimulates the growth/maturation of the follicle containing the oocyte IN the Ovary.]
The follicle stimulating hormone produced by the pituitary gland stimulates the growth of the ovum. Luteinizing hormone of the pituitary produces ovulation.

Luteinising hormone (LH) is made by the pituitary gland and stimulates the mature egg to be released from the ovary, this is called ovulation.
High levels of the hormone oestrogen stimulates the production of FSH hormone in women.
The target organs for luteinizing hormone (LH) are the ovaries and testes. In females, LH stimulates ovulation and the production of progesterone. In males, LH stimulates the production of testosterone in the testes.
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.
