Hormones control the reproductive cycle in both men and women. First of all, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is produced in the hypothalamus of the brain, and moves to the pituitary. The pituitary produces and releases lutenizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). In women, they cause the maturation of an egg in the ovaries, and cause the build-up of the endometrium in the uterus. In men, they stimulate spermatogenesis and testosterone production and release.
