Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) can include mood swings, fluid retention (edema), anxiety, backache and joint pain, food cravings, and other symptoms. PMS usually develops after ovulation and lasts until just before or just after menstruation begins. Although the precise cause of PMS is unknown, it seems clearly related to the cyclic production of ovarian hormones. After reviewing Figure 16.3, suggest which hormonal changes may trigger PMS. Figure 16.3 Animated! Hormones govern the menstrual and ovarian cycles. A GnRH from the hypothalamus stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete FSH and LH. B FSH and LH stimulate a follicle to grow, an oocyte to mature, and the ovaries to secrete progesterone and estrogens that stimulate the endometrium to rebuild. C A midcycle LH surge triggers ovulation and the formation of a corpus luteum. D Progesterone and some estrogens released by the corpus luteum maintain the endometrium, but if no pregnancy occurs, they stop being released and the corpus luteum breaks down. ( Cengage Learning)
FSH and LH release from the anterior pituitary is stimulated by. TSH GnRH T3 PTH
In the female endocrine system, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is able to modulate two hormones to result in the release of a single ovum . This complex system is vulnerable to disruption with resulting abnormal uterine bleeding and infertility Gonadotropin -releasing hormone () stimulates the release of folliclestimulating hormone in addition to which the following ? Adrenocorticotropic harmone Thyroid - hormone TSH ) Opute peptide Growth hormone (GH) Luteinizing hormone (LH)
The primary purpose of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is to stimulate the : Breakdown of the endometrium in the menstrual flow . Development of the woman's breasts for lactation . Secretion of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH ) from the anterior pituitary gland . Growth of pubic and axillary hair .
Which of the enumerated products of steroidogenesis are produced mainly in the ovaries?A. TestosteroneB. CortisolC. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfateD. DehydroepiandrosteroneE. Adrenocorticotrophic hormone
Which of the following statements regarding pituitary hormones is FALSE? Group of answer choices Luteinizing hormone, an anterior pituitary hormone, triggers ovulation of an egg from the ovary and causes the ruptured follicle to produce progesterone and some estrogens. Antidiuretic hormone, released by the posterior pituitary, causes urine volume to increase and blood volume to decrease The hypothalamus makes oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone, which are transported the posterior pituitary for storage. Hyposecretion of follicle-stimulating hormone or luteinizing hormone leads to sterility in both males and females.
