Hormones are chemical messengers. They travel in your bloodstream to tissues and organs. They affect many different processes, including growth, development, metabolism, and reproduction. They are secreted directly into your bloodstream by endocrine glands, such as the pituitary, adrenal glands, pancreas, ovaries, and testes.
