LH is produced by the pituitary gland, and its production is controlled by the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and the hormones made by the ovaries (in women) or testicles (in men).Luteinizing hormone is associated with reproduction and ovulation. In females, it activates the release of an egg from the ovary. However, in males, testosterone production depends on LH.

What does it measure?
The Luteinising Hormone (LH) measures:This test checks the level of luteinizing hormone (LH) in your blood. LH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that plays a major role in both the male and female reproductive systems.The LH works closely with another hormone called follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to control sexual functions. Therefore, the SH level is often analysed along with LH. Women can get their LH values measured to find out their fertility windows on different days of the menstrual cycle.
