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).
