HORMONE

See Article History

Alternative Title: gonadotropic hormone

Gonadotropin, any of several hormones occurring in vertebrates that are secreted from the anterior pituitary gland and that act on the gonads (i.e., the ovaries or testes).

The hypothalamus and pituitary gland control the secretion of gonadotropins (luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone) that regulate the processes of ovulation and menstruation in women. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone is secreted from the hypothalamus in response to neuronal activity in the limbic region of the brain, which is predominantly influenced by emotional and sexual factors. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone stimulates the secretion of gonadotropins from the pituitary gland that then stimulate cells in the ovary to synthesize and secrete estrogen and progesterone. Increased serum concentrations of estrogen and progesterone provide negative feedback signaling in the hypothalamus to inhibit further secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone
