- - - - amino acid derived hormone that contains iodine in its structure.**
        
        Deficiency in younger ages causes (cretinism)mental and growth retardation, and in adults causes (myxodema) low body temperature
      - causes an increase in heart rate and blood pressure
    - - Adjusts the calcium level in the blood
      - allows the excess calcium in the blood to pass to the bone.
      - reduces the reabsorption of calcium from the intestines.
  - - - Parathormone
        
        On the increase:Hyperparathyroidism
        
        In absence:Hypoparathyroidism
  - - - Its target organ is all body cells.
        
        Gigantism=Growth Age Excess
        
        Nanism=Excess in adults
        
        abnormal growth of hand, feet, nose, jaw...
        
        Acromegaly=Growth Age Abcense
        
        Hyperglycemia=in excess
        
        Sugar increase in blood
    - - Hormone secretion from the thyroid gland
    - - emergence of female-specific features by the secretion of estrogen hormone into follicle cells
      - Produce sperm in men
  - - - Aldosterone
        
        Increases blood pressure and volume by decrasing K and increasing the absorption of Na and Cl ions.
        
        Androgen
        
        Cortisol
        
        Increases blood sugar by synthesizing glucose by non carbonhydrate molecules like fat and proteins..
        
        Can be used to reduce pain
        
        Its secretion increases in stressful situations.
        
        In absence:Blood sugar decreases
        
        On the increase:Blood sugar increases, Urea synthesis in liver is ncreased, filtration increases in the kidneys.
    - - noradrenaline
        
        increase blood pressure
        
        can be used as neurotransmitter*
      - adrenaline
        
        increases blood sugar
        
        released with excitement, fear or stress
        
        increases blood pressure
  - - - Increases amount of glucose in blood
    - - Lowers the amount of glucose in blood
  - - - It provides the emergence of features such as hair growth, voice thickening, muscle development.
      - produces sperm
      - Reproductive system
  - - - Luteinizing hormone
      - Prepares uterus for embryo attachment
    - - It causes features such as fine voice development, development of reproductive organs, and body structure specific to the female.
      - Follicle-stimulating hormone
      - in Corpus Luteum
