Detailed explanation-1: -The primary hormones involved in the functioning of the male reproductive system are follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone. FSH and LH are produced by the pituitary gland. It’s located at the base of your brain and it’s responsible for many functions in your body.
Detailed explanation-2: -In men, LH primarily stimulates testosterone production, while FSH stimulates the production of sperm. The testes must be capable of response to this hormonal stimulus. In addition, there must be an intact ductal system to transport sperm to the urethra.
Detailed explanation-3: -Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is a hormone your pituitary gland makes and releases that plays a role in sexual development and reproduction. It affects the function of ovaries and testicles. Despite its name, follicle-stimulating hormone doesn’t directly affect your hair follicles or hair growth.
