Gonadotropin secretion

Gonadotropin secretion involves hormones called luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), which are produced by the brain's pituitary gland. These hormones regulate the function of the ovaries and testes—stimulating egg and sperm production, and controlling the release of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone. The levels of gonadotropins are controlled by feedback from these sex hormones, maintaining balance in reproductive processes. This system ensures proper development, fertility, and hormonal regulation throughout a person's life.
