Progesterone
The hormone whose production is inadequate in myxedema is thyroid hormone, specifically thyroxine (T4). Myxedema is a severe form of hypothyroidism, which occurs when the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone. This leads to a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, and dry skin.
Thyroid hormone.
testosteron
inadequate amounts of thyroid hormone
GRowth Hormone secreted by anterior pitutory gland
excess calcitonin or decreased parathormone
The Growth Hormone (GH). This hormone is produced by the Petuitary Gland (The master gland)
insulin
Production of hormone is usually "hormone specific " therefore inadequacy is determined by which hormone is not produced. Often the prefix hypo- is used. I.e hypothyroidism-no/reduced secretion of thyroid hormones. Hypoparathyroidism- abnormally low rate of PTH, and lastly hyposecretion ( chronic adrenocortical insufficiency)
Progesterone
Excessive diuresis withou high blood glucose levels
It's not the hormone but the lack of it that can cause miscarriage. It's the lack of Progesterone which is the hormone that is required to maintain a healthy pregnancy. It's produced by the ovary until the placenta has matured and after that when needed.
