Role of Hormones
involved in the Female
and Male Reproductive
System
After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. describe the male and female reproductive system
including body parts and functions;

2. investigate the role of hormones involved in male and

reproductive system; (S10LT-IIIb-34); and

3. realize the importance of reproductive health and wellness.

 What is hormone?

 It is a chemical substance produced by the glands in the

body that controls and regulates the activity of certain
cells or organs which carries bloodstream throughout the
body.
 Hormones have great impact on your growth,
appearance, emotions, and reproductive functions.

The system involved in sexual
reproduction is called the
reproductive system.
The female reproductive system has the following
functions:

1. produces female sex cells;

2. receives sperm cells from the male; and

3. nurtures the development of and provides

nourishment for the new individual.
 Puberty involves the onset of sexual maturity and the
ability to reproduce.

 When a female reaches puberty, egg cells start to develop

in her ovaries that produce the sex cells.

 It is also the time when the body develops the capacity to

conceive.
The Roles of Hormones in Female and Male Reproductive Systems

The entire reproductive system is dependent on hormones.

 The brain and pituitary gland produce primary hormones in the male
and female reproductive system, these are follicle-stimulating hormone
(FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
The Roles of Hormones in Female and Male Reproductive Systems
 In male reproductive system, follicle-stimulating hormone is
necessary for sperm production (spermatogenesis), and luteinizing
hormone stimulates testis to produce testosterone, which is also
needed to make sperm.

The production of sperm cells and the release of semen can also be
regulated by other hormones. These hormones keep the reproductive
system properly functioning
The Roles of Hormones in Female and Male Reproductive Systems

The follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone

stimulate the growth of about 15 to 20 eggs in the ovaries, each
in its own "shell," called follicle and stimulates the ovaries to
produce estrogen and progesterone.
Disorders Related to Hormones in the Reproductive
Disorders that cause abnormal levels of estrogen and testosterone in men and women
include:

1.Ovarian insufficiency is also called female hypogonadism. This

condition occurs when a woman’s ovaries do not function properly
before the age of 40. As a result, the ovaries do not produce enough
estrogen or release eggs regularly, often causing infertility,
osteoporosis, and depression.
Disorders Related to Hormones in the Reproductive
Disorders that cause abnormal levels of estrogen and testosterone in men and women include:

2. Male hypogonadism is a condition that occurs when the

testicles do not produce enough testosterone, causing
infertility, a decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction, fatigue,
and loss of secondary male sex characteristics.
Disorders Related to Hormones in the Reproductive
Disorders that cause abnormal levels of estrogen and testosterone in men and women include:

3. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) occurs when women

develop cysts in their ovaries that cause hormonal imbalances,
particularly elevated androgen levels, which cause menstrual
complications, fertility problems, and other health issues.
