Hormone Produced Pituitary Gland Functions Follicle Stimulating Fsh

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) causes a follicle to mature into an ovum and stimulates ovaries to produce oestrogen; Luteinising hormone (LH) triggers ovulation.

Follikelstimulerende hormon (FSH) modner et follikel til en ægcelle og stimulerer æggestokkene til at producere østrogen; Luteiniserende hormon (LH) udløser ægløsning.
