The hypothalamus secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone, or GnRH, which makes the nearby anterior pituitary gland release follicle-stimulating hormone, or FSH, and luteinizing hormone, or LH.

下丘脑分泌促性腺激素释放激素，即GnRH，刺激临近的垂体前叶释放卵泡刺激素（FSH）和黄体生成素（LH）。

The CRH makes the very short trip through the bloodstream to the anterior pituitary gland, where, because it's water soluble, it binds to receptors on the outside of its target cells.

CRH 通过血液很短的行程到达垂体前叶，在那里，因为它是水溶性的，它与靶细胞外部的受体结合。

Roughly fifteen days before fertilization can happen, the anterior pituitary gland secretes follicle stimulating hormone, FSH, which ripens a handful of follicles of the ovary that then release estrogen.

在受精发生前大约 15 天，垂体前叶分泌促卵泡激素 FSH，使少量卵巢卵泡成熟，然后释放雌激素。
