Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

Luteinizing hormone, also known as the lutropin, is a heterodimeric glycoprotein produced by the gonadotropic cells of the anterior pituitary gland.

The function of the luteinizing hormone in males is the secretion of the progesterone hormone. Whereas, in females, the acute rise of this hormone triggers ovulation, maintains the corpus luteum and is also responsible for the secretion of progesterone hormone.
