Yes, the main source of tropic hormones is the anterior pituitary gland. This gland releases hormones that control the function of other endocrine glands in the body, such as the thyroid gland, adrenal gland, and gonads. The tropic hormones include thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH).
