- - - - cortisol~ increases blood glucose
      - Aldosterone~ raises blood pressure
      - Sex hormones~ Adrenal androgens in male and female
    - - Epinephrine~ blood pressure increase
    - - Cushing syndrome- hypersecretion of adrenal cortical hormones
      - Addison disease- Hyposecretion of glucorticoids and mineralocorticoids
  - - - Hypoparathyroidism~ deficiency of PTH due to surgical removal or injury to glands, which results in a decrease in blood calcium
      - Hyperparathyroidism~ excess of PTH, perhaps due to parathyroid tumor,which results in an incre\ase in blood calcium
  - - - Hyperthyroidism~ Overactivity in the thyroid gland, causes high metabolic rate, restlessness, and overeating
      - Hypothyroidism~ Underactivity of the thyroid gland, causes low metabolic rate, fatigue and weight gain. In infants it may cause poor growth and bone formation sluggishness.
  - - - Hormones secreted from the Anterior pituitary Lobe: (GH) growth hormone, (PRL) prolactin, (TSH) thyroid stimulating hormone, (ACTH) adrenocorticotropic hormone, (CRH) corticotropin releasing hormone, (FSH) follicle stimulating hormone, (LH) Lutenizing hormone
        
        (GH) growth hormone ~stimulates body cells to grow and reproduce
        
        (PRL) prolactin~ Promotes milk production, following the birth of infants
        
        (ACTH) adrenocorticotropic hormone~ controls secretion of certain hormones from the adrenal cortex
        
        (TSH) Thyroid stimulating hormone~ Controls secretion of hormones,
        
        (TRH) is secreted from TSH stimulating the hypothalamus, as thyroid hormone increases, TSH and TRH decreases
        
        (FSH) follicle stimulating hormone~ in charge of stimulating sperm
        
        (CRH) corticotropin releasing hormone~ can be increased when under stress, which increases secretion of ACTH
        
        (LH) Lutenizing hormone~ triggers ovulation
