Tissue Transplantation Impact Factor

Hormones heavily manage the human body’s generative system, and the luteinizing hormone is one of those hormones. With different roles in the bodies of men and women, this important hormone is critical to ensuring a healthy generative system. Taking control of your generative health requires understanding this essential hormone.

Luteinizing hormone (LH) is constructed and released in the anterior hypophysis gland. This hormone is to examine a gonadotrophic hormone because of its role in manage the function of ovaries in females and testes in males, which are known as the gonads.

What does luteinizing hormone do?

In women, the hormone replaces the ovaries to produce oestradiol. Two weeks into a woman's cycle, a stream in luteinizing hormone source the ovaries to release an egg during ovulation. If fertilization occurs, the luteinizing hormone will restore the corpus luteum, which constructs progesterone to hold up the pregnancy.

For men, the luteinizing hormone stimulates the production of testosterone from Leydig cells in the testes. Testosterone, in turn, restorative sperm production and helps accentuate male characteristics — like a deep voice or growth of facial hair.

What problems can occur with the luteinizing hormone?

People who have high levels of luteinizing hormone may occurrence infertility because the hormone directly impacts the reproductive system. In women, luteinizing hormone levels that are too high are often connected to polycystic ovary syndrome, which creates inappropriate testosterone levels. Some genetic conditions, like Turner syndrome or Klinefelter syndrome, can cause high levels of the hormone, as well. People with these conditions are often unable to reproduce.
