Can you tell me about hormones: gnrh surge--> lh?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: I am not sure what you are asking, but GNRH is a hormone produced by the hypothalamus. It is made in a pulsatile manner normally. This acts on the pituitary gland to cause the release of LH, also in a pulsatile manner. Taking large amounts of GNRH analogs (such as Lupron) initially causes release of LH, but then suppresses further release (thereby turning off testosterone or estrogen production)
