Solution

Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone(GnRH) from the hypothalamus stimulates the synthesis and secretion of the two gonadotropins--Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)--by the anterior pituitary gland. These hormones are responsible for the changes at the start of puberty in women.
