What hormones are releases by the Pituitary Gland?

A	FSH, Oestrogen, LH and Progesterone
B	FSH, Oestrogen, and Progesterone
C	FSH, LH and Progesterone
D	FSH and LH

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Estrogen is at a low point. Therefore, the pituitary secretes FSH and LH, a process which actually begins before the onset of your menses. These hormones in turn stimulate the growth of several ovarian follicles, each containing one egg.

Detailed explanation-2: -LH is made by your pituitary gland, a small gland located underneath the brain. LH plays an important role in sexual development and functioning. In women, LH helps control the menstrual cycle. It also triggers the release of an egg from the ovary.

Detailed explanation-3: -FSH (follicle stimulating hormone)-stimulates ovarian follicle production in women; stimulates sperm production in men. LH (luteinizing hormone)-stimulates ovaries to produce estrogen in women; stimulates sperm production in men. Prolactin-stimulates breast tissue in nursing mothers to produce milk.
