Describe how glands lead to the production of female/male sex cells and an embryo/fetus.

FSH and LH are the main sex hormones in humans called gonadotrophins. They are secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. They act on the gonads; testes in males and ovaries in females. LH stimulated the production of testosterone by the testes while the hormone stimulates ovulation in females. FHS promotes sperm production in males while it stimulates maturation of ova in female ovaries.
