Answer

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is a hormone that regulates the function of the ovaries and testes.

In females, FSH stimulates the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles, which are structures that contain eggs. As follicles grow, they produce estrogen.

In males, FSH stimulates the testes to produce sperm.
