Detailed explanation-1: -FSH stimulates granulosa cells in the ovarian follicles to synthesize aromatase, which converts androgens produced by the thecal cells to estradiol.
Detailed explanation-2: -Follicle stimulating hormone is one of the hormones essential to pubertal development and the function of women’s ovaries and men’s testes. In women, this hormone stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles in the ovary before the release of an egg from one follicle at ovulation.
Detailed explanation-3: -GnRH stimulates the pituitary gland to produce follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), the hormone responsible for starting follicle (egg) development and causing the level of estrogen, the primary female hormone, to rise.
Detailed explanation-4: -Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is critical for ovarian folliculogenesis and female fertility. FSH plays a key role in antral follicle development and, in combination with luteinizing hormone (LH), stimulates preovulatory follicular growth (reviewed in McGee & Hsueh 2000, Hillier 2001).
