Tag Archives: Luteinizing Hormone

A luteinizing hormone is a kind of hormone that is created by the gonadotropic cells that are found in the anterior pituitary glands; in your body, an increase of this specific hormone triggers the production of the corpus lutem while also prompting ovulation. To measure the amount and levels of the luteinizing hormone, you can go through a luteinizing hormone test to determine if the levels of this hormone are high or low in your body.
