GnRH, short for gonadotropin-releasing hormone, is released by the part of the brain known as the hypothalamus. At the beginning of the menstual cycle, the hypothalamus releases GnRH. The GnRH then stimulates a different part of the brain, the pituitary gland, to produce two hormones, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
