stimulate exocrine glands to produce secretions, stimulate other endocrine glands, regulate growth and development, regulate metabloism, maintain fluid and electrolyte balance, control various sex processes
pituitary gland
-
-
ACTC, TSH, GH, FSH, MSH, LH, ADH, Oxytocin
diabetes insipidus
-
-
polyuria, polydispia, dehydration, weakness, constipation, dry skin
Goiter
enlargement of the thyroid gland caused by hyperactive thyroid, an iodine deficency, an over secretion of TSH on part of hte pituitary gland
chocking sensation, dysphagia, cough
eliminate cause, surgery may be needed
hyperparathyroidism
-
results in hypercalcemia which leads to kidney stone, lethargy, GI disorders
condition usually a result of a tumor so treatment would be to remove the tumor followed by administration of parathormone
Pancreas

-
-

bones of hands and feet enlarge, skin and tongue thicken, slurred speech
Gigantism
-
excessive growth of long bones,extreme tallness, decreased sexual development and at all time mental retardation

Hyperthroidism
Overactive thyroid which causes increased production of thyroid hormones and increases your metabollic rate
extreme nervousness, tremors, irritability, rapid pulse, diaphorosis, hot, polydyspia, hypertension
Hypothyroidism
cretinism
develops in infancy/early childhood. results of mental and physical growth which leads to mental retardation
Myxedema
-
skin, slow mental function, fatigue, intolerance to cold, weight gain, puffy eyes, slow pulse

Adddison's disease
decreased secretion of aldosterone. Interferes with absorbtion of sodium and water and increased the levels of potassium in blood
dehydration, fatigue, diarrea, weight loss, muscle weakness, bronze skin, hypoglucemia
dwarfism
results from under secretion of GH that can be caused from a tumor, infection, genetics, injury
thyroid gland
parathormone
-
stimulates bone cells to break down bone tissue and release calcium and phosphates into the blood, causing kidneys to conserver and reabsorb calcium
ovaries
female sex glands, located in pelvis, secretes hormones that regulate mestruation and secondary sexual characteristics
Testes
male sex galnds, located in scrotal sac, produce hormones that regulate secondary sexual characteristics
