Luteinizing hormone (LH) regulation primarily occurs through the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) released from the hypothalamus stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete LH. The levels of LH are further regulated by feedback from sex hormones such as estrogen and testosterone, which inhibit or stimulate GnRH and LH production depending on the physiological context, such as during the menstrual cycle or spermatogenesis. Additionally, factors like stress, nutrition, and overall health can also influence LH levels.

Which hormone stimulates the production of testosterone?

Hormones are regulated by what are called negative feedback mechanisms. When more is needed, more will be released and the opposite is true when there is enough. For example, the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone decreases as the amount of circulating estrogen increases.


What gland secrets LH?

Luteinizing hormone (LH) is secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. This hormone plays a crucial role in regulating the reproductive system, including stimulating ovulation in females and the production of testosterone in males. Its secretion is regulated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus.


What regulates estrogen and progesterone?

LH ( luteinising hormone) is stimulated by oestrogen and secreted by the pituitary gland. As oestrogen levels rise it will inhibit the production of FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) and will encourage the production of LH. As LH rises to a peak in the middle of the menstrual cycle, they will stimulate the release of a mature egg.


Which hormone stimulates the corpus luteum to produce progesterone and estrogen?

Where are LH and FSH produced?

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.
