- Sequence the events according to the flow of information that facilitates the coordination of nervous, reproductive, and endocrine systems. The hypothalamus initiates the release of Gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GNRH). When the anterior pituitary gland receives signal, it will produce follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Secretion of GnRH, FSH, and LH stops.
