The correct option is B

Luteinizing Hormone


Luteinizing Hormone

Luteinizing hormone is an important hormone which both men and women produce. This hormone is known as a gonadotropin, and it affects the sex organs in both men and women.

This helps in controlling the function of ovaries in females and testes in males, which are known as the gonads.
