Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) complex with receptor, molecular model. FSH helps to regulate human sexual development and reproductive processes. In females, it acts on follicles in the ovaries. In males, it acts to stimulate development and production of the male sex cells (spermatogenesis). Here, the hormone is shown bound to the extracellular hormone-binding domain of its receptor.
