Cholesterol comes into granulosa cells as egg is released. Cholesterol converted to progesterone
Oxytocin cause?
Contraction of myoepithelial cells of alveoli
FSH acts on granulosa cells to stimulate production of?
Androstenedione to estradiol
LH acts on theca cells to stimulate production of?
Androstendione
And on granulosa cells to stimulate progesterone production from cholesterol
And estradiol production from androstendione
FSH with testosterone acts on which cells and what does it do?
