Gonadotropic hormones FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (Luteinizing hormone) are produced and secreted by the gonadotrophs in anterior pituitary.
These are the trophic hormones that act on the ovaries and testes. Required for ovulation, spermatogenesis, biosynthesis of estrogens and androgens. They are also used therapeutically to promote fertility.
Their secretion is regulated by the hypothalamus GRH (gonadotropin releasing hormone), where GRH stimulates the release of FSH and LH and FSH and LH feedback and decreases levels of GRH release. Estrogens and androgens also feedback and inhibit the gonadotrophs in the pituitary and feedback on the hypothalamus.

What are the two hormones FSH and LH produced by?
FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (Lutenizing hormone) are produced by the pituitary gland in the brain. Specifically, the anterior region of the pituitary gland.

Pituitary Gland
What is the hormone gonadotropin-releasing hormone?
It is produced by Hypothalamus.It stimulates secretion of FSH and LH by Pitutory.
What is the gland that FSH and LH acts upon?
They are produced in the anterior pituitary and act mostly notably on the uterus
What is produced by the lh and fsh hormones?
Luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) are both produced by the anterior pituitary gland. LH stimulates ovulation and the production of progesterone in females, while in males, it prompts testosterone production. FSH is crucial for the development of ovarian follicles in females and the production of sperm in males. Together, these hormones play a vital role in regulating the reproductive processes in both sexes.
What gland produces Fsh and LH?
The pituatry gland.
Which two hormones controlling the menstrual cycle are produced in the pituitary gland?
The two hormones are LH and FSH. Both are necessary for proper function of the ovary. Together they produce a mature egg. After the egg is released and not fertilized, menstruation will occur. Menstruation occurs when the lining of the uterus is "lost" since it doesn't need to be ready to accept a zygote (fertilized egg).
How do fsh n lh help in pcos?
In PCOS patient there is Elevated level of LH where dr cannot use HMG, coz HMG has FSH and LH in 1:1 ratio. AS LH levels r high in PCOS patient no need to give LH. so in those patient Dr's can use on FSH for follicular growth.
