luteinizing hormone (LH)
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 (LH) is responsible for promoting the secretion of testosterone in males. LH is released from the pituitary gland and stimulates the Leydig cells in the testes to produce testosterone.
It's a protein that regulates secretion of progesterone in women and controls the maturation of Graafian follicles, ovulation and initiation of the corpus luteum. In men it stimulates the Leydig cells to produce testosterone which is the hormone responsible for the appearance of secondary sexual characteristics of male and the sexual appetite.
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion is primarily regulated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus. GnRH stimulates the release of FSH from the anterior pituitary gland. Additionally, negative feedback from sex steroids such as estrogen and testosterone can also influence FSH secretion.
The luteinizing hormone stimulates ovulation in the female and production of the female sex hormone progesterone.
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 is triggered by a **peak in luteinizing hormone (LH)** secretion.
L.H is the abbreviation for the hormone that stimulates ovulation
Luteinizing hormone (LH) is the hormone that stimulates the ovaries and testes to increase their production of estradiol and testosterone. In females, LH triggers ovulation and stimulates the corpus luteum to produce estradiol, while in males, it promotes testosterone production by acting on the Leydig cells in the testes. This regulation is crucial for reproductive health and function in both sexes.
Oestrogen stimulates the hormone LH. LH is secreted in pituitary gland and stimulates the release of an egg
