The pituitary glycoprotein hormone family includes follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, chorionic gonadotropin, and thyroid stimulating hormone. All of these glycoproteins consists of an identical alpha subunit and a hormone-specific beta subunit. FSH beta is the beta subunit of follicle stimulating hormone. In conjunction with luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone induces egg and sperm production.
