Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone are produced by the pituitary gland and regulate the development of gametes (eggs and sperm) and the production of sex hormones (estrogen and testosterone) in both males and females. While estrogen and progesterone are primarily produced by the ovaries in females, they also play a role in male reproductive health. Gonadotropin-releasing hormones and progesterone are not hormones that function in both male and female reproductive systems.
