Do You know That " How Hormones Control Our Life ? "




hormones



In the past, it was thought that hormones only affected the body and not the brain. We now know 

that hormones programme our brains before birth, dictating our thinking and behavior. 


male hormones





Testosterone in teenage boys is 15-20 times higher than in teenage girls and the hormone flow in 

boys  is controlled and regulated by the brain as the body needs it.


At puberty, testosterone surges through an adolescent boy's body, giving him a dramatic spurt of 

growth and a body ratio of 15% fat and 45% protein


male hormones




As he turns into an adolescent, his body physically changes to match his biological job description 

as a lean, mean, lunch chasing machine. 


Boys are excellent at sport because their bodies are hormonal ly constructed for effective

breathing
and they have excellent oxygen distribution via the red blood cells to allow running

jumping and grappling


male hormones



Steroids are male hormones that build additional muscle and give athletes extra 'hunting' abilities

and an unfair advantage over non-steroid takers.

female hormones



Female hormones have a different effect on teenage girls. They are not regulated like a boy's 

hormones but come in huge waves over a 28-day cycle and can cause havoc for many girls and 

women due to the rise and fall of emotions that go with it. 

female hormones


Female hormones change a girl's body into a ratio of 26% fat and 20% protein, much to the 

frustration of females everywhere. The purpose of the extra fat is to give additional energy for

breastfeeding and is insurance against times when food may be scarce

female hormones



fatten the body, they are used to fatten livestock. Male hormones reduce fat and build muscle so 

they're unsuitable for animal fattening.

 Hormones As A Proteins



Small peptide hormones consist of TRH and vasopressin. Peptides composed of scores 

or hundreds of amino acids are referred to as proteins. Examples of protein hormones

 include insulin and increase hormone. extra complicated protein hormones

 undergo carbohydrate aspect-chains and are referred to as glycoprotein hormones.

" Human Hormones And Their Functions Chart"



The main characteristic of endocrine glands is to secrete hormones without delay into 

the  bloodstream





Hormones are chemical substances that affect the pastime of another part of the frame 

(goal website). In essence, hormones function messengers, controlling and coordinating 

sports all through the frame..


Endocrine gland

Hormone

Main tissues acted on by hormone

Main function of hormones




Hypothalamus

Thyrotrophin releasing hormone (TRH)Anterior pituitary
Stimulates release of thyroid

 stimulating hormone (TSH)

 from the anterior pituitary
SomatostatinAnterior pituitary
Inhibitory hormone that prevents

 release of hormones

such as growth hormone from the

 anterior pituitary
Gonadotrophin releasing

hormone (GnRH)
Anterior pituitary
Stimulates release of follicle

stimulating hormone (FSH)

and luteinising hormone (LH) from

 the anterior pituitary
Corticotrophin releasing

hormone (CRH)
Anterior pituitary
Stimulates catastrophically

hormone (ACTH) release

 from the anterior pituitary
Growth Hormone Releasing

Hormone (GHRH)
Anterior pituitary
Stimulates release of growth

hormone (GH) form the

anterior pituitary











Anterior pituitary




Thyroid stimulating hormone

 (TSH)
Thyroid gland
Stimulates release of thyroxine

and tri-iodothyronine from

 the thyroid gland
Luteinising hormone (LH)Ovary/Testis
Females: promotes ovulation of

the egg and stimulates

oestrogen and progesterone

production Males: promotes

 testosterone release from the

testis
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)Ovary/Testis
Females: promotes development

of eggs and follicles in

the ovary prior to ovulation

 Males:

 promotes production of

testosterone from testis
Growth Hormone (GH)Bones, cartilage, muscle, fat, liver

, heart

Acts to promote growth of bones

and organs
Prolactin (PRL)Breasts, brain
Stimulates milk production in the

 breasts and plays a role

 in sexual behavior
Adrenocortico-trophic

hormone

(ACTH)
Adrenal glands
Stimulates the adrenal glands to

 produce mainly cortisol



Posterior 

pituitary




Vasopressin (anti-diuretic

hormone, ADH)




Kidney, blood vessels, blood

components

Acts to maintain blood pressure by

 causing the kidney to

 retain fluid and by constricting

 blood vessels
OxytocinUterus, milk ducts of breasts
Causes ejection of milk from the

 milk ducts and causes

constriction of the uterus during

labour



Thyroid gland



Thyroxine (T4)


Most tissues

Acts to regulate the body’s

metabolic rate
Tri-iodothyronine (T3)Most tissues
Acts to regulate the body’s

metabolic rate




Parathyroid 

glands




Parathyroid hormone

(PTH)



Kidney, Bone cells

Increases blood calcium levels in

the blood when they are

low
CalcitoninKidney, Bone cells
Decreases blood calcium levels

when they are high







Adrenal cortex






Cortisol





Most tissues

Involved in a huge array of

physiological functions

including blood pressure

regulation, immune system

functioning and blood glucose

regulation
AldosteroneKidney
Acts to maintain blood pressure by

 causing salt and water

retention
AndrogensMost tissues
Steroid hormones that promote

 development of male

characteristics. Physiological

 function unclear




Adrenal medulla





Adrenaline and

noradrenaline

(the catecholamines)






Most tissues

Involved in many physiological

systems including blood

pressure regulation,

gastrointestinal movement and

patency of the airways




Pancreas

InsulinMuscle, fat tissue
Acts to lower blood glucose levels
GlucagonLiver
Acts to raise blood glucose levels
SomatostatinPancreas
Acts to inhibit glucagon and insulin
 release






Ovary









Oestrogens






Breast, Uterus, Internal and


external genitalia

Acts to promote development of

 female primary and

secondary sexual

characteristics. Important role in

preparing the uterus for

implantation of embryo
ProgesteroneBreastUterus
Affects female sexual

characteristics and important

 in the maintenance of pregnancy



Testis






Testosterone





Sexual organs

Promotes the development of male

 sexual

characteristics including sperm

development




Stomach

GastrinStomach
Promotes acid secretion in the

stomach
Serotonin (5-HT)Stomach
Causes constriction of the stomach

 muscles


Duodenum



 and




 jejunum

SecretinStomach, Liver
Inhibits secretions from the

 stomach and increases

bile production
Cholecystokinin (CCK)Liver, Pancreas
Stimulates release of bile

from the

gall bladder and

causes the pancreas to

 release

digestive enzymes



Kidney



Erythropoietin


Bone marrow

Stimulates red blood cell

development in the bone

marrow


Heart




Atrial natiuretic factor (ANF)



Kidney

Lowers blood pressure by

promoting salt and water

loss





Skin









Vitamin D







Small intestine, Kidney,

Bone cells

Stimulates the uptake of

calcium in

 the small

intestine, retention of

calcium and

release of calcium from

 bone

 stores
