WHAT DOES LUTEINIZING HORMONE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

luteinizing hormone

Luteinizing hormone

Luteinizing hormone is a hormone produced by gonadotroph cells in the anterior pituitary gland. In females, an acute rise of LH triggers ovulation and development of the corpus luteum. In males, where LH had also been called interstitial cell-stimulating hormone, it stimulates Leydig cell production of testosterone. It acts synergistically with FSH.
