Select the incorrect statement:
Correct answer: A. LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase
- A. LH and FSH decrease gradually during the follicular phase
- B. LH triggers secretion of androgens from the Leydig cells
- C. FSH stimulates the sertoli cells which help in spermiogenesis
- D. LH triggers ovulation in ovary
Explanation
During follicular phase FSH secretion increases. Follicular phase (proliferative phase) usually includes cycle days 613 or 14 in a 28 days cycle. The follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) secreted by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland stimulates the ovarian follicle to secrete estrogens.
