Anterior Pituitary is a major organ that is significant.
regulation of stress, growth and reproduction, it grants.
Hyphothalamic-pituitary portal system established the connection,
between releasing factors and stimulating hormones that work in conjunction.




It is also called the adenohypophysis,
derived during embryological development which we can't miss.
Release hormones that stimulate,
responsible also for the sex characteristics which everyone can relate.

The growth hormone allows us to grow.
This formulates way for us to move forward and go.
But oooppss, not too much,
for it may develop gigantism.
And less amount of such,
will lead to dwarfism.

This releases Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and now it is related to the thyroid.
How great God is, the engineer of the body.
He made everything perfectly connected,
so the body will be in harmony.

We also have the Leutinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) aka gonadal hormones,
in which the target glands are the testis and the ovaries.
These regulate pubertal maturation and responsible for the secondary sex characteristics,
as well as giving life to new human beings.
There's also Prolactin, not to make us weak,
it is responsible for the production of milk.

The Adenocorticotropic homone (ACTH) aka as corticotropin.
it responds to the stress that make us likely to be insane.
How amazing it is to have everything in order.
That's why we need to take care of our selves better. :D
