Chapter 28, Problem 11CT
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The GnRH (Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone) causes the release of the FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) and the LH (Luteinizing hormone) from the anterior pituitary. The FSH initiates the process of spermatogenesis. The LH helps in the production of the male hormone that is testosterone.
