A man has been told that he is NOT synthesizing enough follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and for this reason he may be unable to father a child. Choose the correct statement to explain this problem. A hormone made in the anterior pituitary cannot influence fertility. FSH stimulates sperm production in the testes. The man must be producing progesterone, which inhibits the synthesis of FSH. FSH stimulates estrogen secretion by ovarian cells; therefore it is not synthesized by males.

The following are likely causes: a) Over stimulation of the follicular system of the ovaries by the Hypophysis. b) Under production of oestrogens and progesterone c) Under production of FSH and LH d) All the above e) None of the above
