Responses:
Induces contraction of the uterus
Secreted by the corpus luteum even after it regresses later in pregnancy; blocks uterine contractions until time of birth is near
Secreted by the corpus luteum and helps maintain the endometrium; secreted by Sertoli cells and inhibits FSH secretion by the anterior pituitary
Secreted by the hypothalamus; stimulates the release of FSH and LH from the anterior pituitary
Secreted by the developing embryo; maintains function of the corpus luteum
stimulates oocytes in the ovaries to begin meiosis; stimulates Sertoli cells in the testes to secrete molecules needed for spermatogenesis
Secreted by Leydig cells; stimulates spermatogenesis and controls the growth and function of male reproductive structures
stimulates growth of the uterine lining and inhibits contractions of the uterus
Triggers ovulation; stimulates Leydig cells in the testes to secrete testosterone
Secreted by follicular cells; stimulates the growth of a new endometrium
