41. GPER has been found to modulate gonadotropin -releasing hormone ( GnRH ) secretion in the axis. 42. By this mechanism, the gonadotropin pulses that occur primarily at night just before puberty represent beats. 43. Rarely, when the theca-lutein cysts are stimulated by gonadotropins , massive ascites can result. 44.

One of the strangest weight loss crazes was human chorionic gonadotropin , a hormone produced by pregnant women. 46. LH is released from the pituitary gland, and is controlled by pulses of gonadotropin -releasing hormone. 47. LH is available mixed with FSH in the form of menotropin, and other forms of urinary gonadotropins . 48. GnRH stimulates the release of gonadotropins ( LH and FSH ) from the anterior pituitary in the body. 49. It is usually associated with tumors of the hypothalamus, causing increased appetite and depressed secretion of gonadotropin . 50. He found the drug a Gonadotropin -releasing hormone agonist to be active in prostate cancer.
