Question
Mention the full name, source and function of GTH.
Answer
GTH stands for Gonadotropin hormone, which is secreted from the anterior pituitary gland. The two types of GTH are luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The function of GTH is to stimulate the gonads (ovaries in females and testes in males) to produce sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone) and to regulate reproductive processes such as gamete production and ovulation.
