Detailed explanation-1: -During labor, when the fetus’s body (usually head) pushes against your cervix, the nerve impulses from this stimulation travel to your brain and stimulate your pituitary gland to release oxytocin into your bloodstream. The oxytocin travels to your uterus and stimulates contractions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Which hormones does the pituitary gland make? The anterior lobe of your pituitary gland makes and releases the following hormones: Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH or corticotrophin): ACTH plays a role in how your body responds to stress.
Detailed explanation-3: -TSH causes the thyroid to release two hormones called T3 and T4 that stimulate metabolism in other cells throughout the body. The pituitary can also release a hormone called antidiuretic hormone, or ADH. It’s produced in the hypothalamus and stored in the pituitary. ADH affects the production of urine.
