The role of luteinizing hormone activity in spermatogenesis: from physiology to clinical practice
13 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
The production of spermatozoa, a process known as spermatogenesis, is primarily controlled by follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH)-driven testosterone. LH acts on the Leydig cells, stimulating steroid production, predominantly testosterone, and activating critical inter-related spermatogenesis regulatory pathways.
