Neutro Internal organs: Endocrine glands:
Endocrine glands are ductless glands and differing in shape, size and location.
They produce chemical messengers called hormones that travel through the circulatory system to other parts of the body to regulate physiology and behaviour.
The endocrine glands respond to the autonomic nervous system and, in turn, influence the nerve centres through the blood by secretion.
The Endocrine glands and their Hormones:
✨HYPOTHALAMUS: TRH, CRH, GHRH, PRH, LHRH or GnRH
✨PINEAL BODY: Melatonin
✨PITUITARY GLAND: GH, TSH, ACTH, FSH, MSH, LH, PRL, ADH, Oxytocin.
✨THYROID GLAND: T3, T4, Calcitonin.
✨PARATHYROID GLAND: PTH
✨THYMUS GLAND: Thymopoietin, Thymosin
✨PANCREAS: Insulin, Glucagon, Somatostatin.
✨ADRENAL GLAND: Aldosterone, Cortisol, DHEA, Epinephrine, Norepinephrine
✨ OVARIES: Estrogens, Progesterone, Inhibin, Relaxin.
✨TESTIS: Testosterone, Inhibin.
Your hormone levels are constantly in a state of flux. They arenever steady, always going up or down. Your brain “listens” to yourhormones to figure out what to do. High hormone levels feed back tothe brain, telling it to shut down production of a particular hormone.Low hormone levels do the opposite, causing brain hormone production to surge.The rhythms are not always predictable. Some hormones follow aregular 24-hour cycle, known as a circadian rhythm. But those rhythms
aren’t in sync. Cortisol, for example, peaks at 7 to 8 a.m. Growth hormone, on the other hand, peaks at about 3 a.m.
Many other hormones are not under the control of the pituitarygland. Insulin is not officially controlled by the pituitary gland, butimbalances of thyroid hormone, growth hormone, cortisol, estrogen,or testosterone can affect insulin. Various other hormones are not regulated by the pituitary gland, such as fat hormones, pancreatic hormones, gut hormones, and other hormones that don’t come from traditional “glands.” Many things can go wrong with hormones.
According to pathophysiology, one can select the joint corresponding to the gland for therapy.
