It plays a crucial role in the reproductive system.
In females, FSH is primarily responsible for the growth and development of ovarian follicles, the small sacs in the ovaries that contain eggs. It helps stimulate the production of estrogen and initiates the maturation of the follicles. FSH levels increase during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, leading to the release of a mature egg during ovulation.
In males, FSH promotes the growth and development of the seminiferous tubules in the testes, which are responsible for sperm production. It works in conjunction with luteinizing hormone (LH) to stimulate the production of testosterone, the hormone that plays a vital role in male sexual development and function.
Abnormal levels of FSH can indicate various reproductive disorders. In females, high FSH levels may be associated with ovarian failure, menopause, or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Low levels of FSH may indicate an issue with the pituitary gland or hypothalamus.
In males, high FSH levels may indicate testicular dysfunction or infertility. Low levels of FSH may be associated with hypogonadism, a condition where the testes do not produce enough testosterone.
Assessing FSH levels through laboratory testing can assist in diagnosing and monitoring various reproductive disorders. Medical professionals can interpret FSH levels in the context of an individual's clinical history, symptoms, and other hormone levels to provide appropriate treatment and management options.
