Detailed explanation-1: -FSH is made by your pituitary gland, a small gland located underneath the brain. FSH plays an important role in sexual development and functioning. In women, FSH helps control the menstrual cycle and stimulates the growth of eggs in the ovaries.
Detailed explanation-2: -Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH): This hormone stimulates the testes to produce sperm and stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs and estrogen. Luteinizing hormone (LH): This hormone stimulates ovulation in women and testosterone production in men.
