Menotrophin Pharmacology
Menotrophin
FSH and LH acts to promote gametogenesis and secretion of gonadal hormones.
In female FSH induces follicular growth, development of ovum and secretion of hormone estrogen. In male FSH supports spermatogenesis and also has a trophic influence on seminiferous tubules. In female LH induces preovulatory swelling of the ripe Graafian follicle and triggers ovulation. It brings about luteinization of the ruptured follicle and maintains corpus luteum till the next menstrual cycle. Also only under luteinizing hormone`s influence progesterone secretion occurs. In males LH stimulates testosterone secretion by interstitial cells.
