Which of the following is/are the action/s of FSH in female?
a) Maturation of ovarian follicle
b) estrogen production
c) progesterone production
d) both a and b
Explanation In women, FSH helps manage the menstrual cycle and stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs.
Which of the following is/are the function/s of FSH in males?
a) Development of germinal epithelium
b) production of testosterone
c) sperm production in the testes
d) both a and c
Explanation In men, follicle stimulating hormone acts on the Sertoli cells of the testes to stimulate sperm production (spermatogenesis).
Luteinizing hormone (LH) is released by
a) anterior pituitary
b) posterior pituitary
c) intermediate pituitary
d) thyroid gland
Explanation Luteinizing hormone (LH) is a glycoprotein hormone that is co-secreted along with follicle-stimulating hormone by the gonadotrophin cells in the adenohypophysis (anterior pituitary).
The secretion of Luteinizing hormone (LH) is regulated by……..
a) corticotropic releasing factor
b) thyrotrophin releasing factor
c) meloncyte stimulating hormone
d) gonadotropin releasing hormone
Explanation gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) is released from hypothalamus
Which of the following is/are the action/s of Luteinizing hormone (LH) in female?

c) converts ruptured follicle to a glandular structure
d) all of these
Explanation ruptured follicle converts to a glandular structure called corpus luteum
Which of the following is/are the function/s of Luteinizing hormone (LH) in males?
