hypothalamic pituitary ovarian (hpo) axis

How Does the HPO Axis Work?

The HPO axis operates through a series of feedback mechanisms:
1. The hypothalamus secretes Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).
2. GnRH stimulates the anterior pituitary gland to release Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing hormone (LH).
3. FSH and LH then act on the ovaries to promote the growth of follicles and the production of estrogen and progesterone.
