Detailed explanation-1: -The pituitary hormones include adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH); gonadotropins; thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), also called thyrotropin; growth hormone (GH); and prolactin. The first three of those hormones-ACTH, gonadotropins, and TSH-act on other glands.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are four hormones secreted by the anterior pituitary gland that control the functions of other endocrine glands. These hormones include thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormones (LH).
Detailed explanation-3: -Growth hormone, prolactin, thyroid-stimulating hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, adrenocorticotrophic hormone, and melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) are all present in the anterior pituitary. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and oxytocin are produced by the posterior pituitary gland.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hormones released by anterior pituitary gland are GH, PRL, FSH, LH, ACTH and TSH.
Detailed explanation-5: -Your pituitary gland is made of two lobes: the anterior (front) lobe and posterior (back) lobe. The anterior pituitary creates and releases over six different hormones, which regulate various cellular processes including: Growth.
