Question:

Name the hormones involved in regulation of spermatogenesis.

Answer:

Spermatogenesis is regulated by several hormones:

  1. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): Stimulates Sertoli cells and is key in initiating spermatogenesis.
  2. Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Stimulates Leydig cells to produce testosterone.
  3. Testosterone: Produced by Leydig cells, it is essential for the final stages of spermatogenesis and development of male secondary sexual characteristics.
