===Luteinising Hormone (LH)===

LH is a type of glycoprotein that is produced in the '''anterior pituitary''' via gonadotroph cells and serves to regulate the function of the gonads. In males LH stimulates the production and secretion of testosterone from the testes via '''leydig cells'''. In females LH stimulates the production of oestrogens and progesterone from the ovary via '''theca interna cells''' and '''luteal cells'''. Concentrations of LH increase during ovulation and with the formation of the corpora lutea with progesterone secretion. The secretion of LH is regulated via the secretion of GnRH (see earlier section).
