Test information

 Luteinizing hormone (LH) is a gonadotropic peptide hormone of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland that stimulates the secretion of sex hormones (estrogens and progesterone) in men and women. In men, LH affects the Leydig cells of the testes, activating the synthesis of testosterone in them, in women - on the cells of the ovarian membrane and corpus luteum, stimulates ovulation and activates the synthesis of estrogen and progesterone in ovarian cells. In the middle of the menstrual cycle, there is a rise in the level of LH, which is preceded (in 12 hours) by the preovulatory peak of estradiol. Ovulation occurs after 12-20 hours. After reaching the maximum concentration of LH.
