=No, hypothalamus is not an endocrine gland=
hypothalamus.
The hypothalamus connects the nervous system to the endocrine system, the hypothalamus receives the signal from the internal/external environments and then send chemical signals to the endocrine system to release the needed hormone for a particular function. So the hypothalamus does not receive signal from both, but transmits the signal to the endocrine system.
The hypothalamus has neural outputs to the pituitary gland, which is the main gland for the endocrine system
hypothalamus
The hypothalamus is the endocrine gland that links the endocrine and nervous systems. It controls many of the pituitary hormone levels and also controls body water levels. The hypothalamus is located in the brain.the thyriod gland
The hypothalamus is a part of the central nervous system.
Both the hypothalamus and the pineal gland are in the endocrine system, although the former is a part of the nervous system (in the brain) that interfaces the endocrine system.
The hypothalamus is the master control center of the endocrine system.
That would be the hypothalamus, the gland of homeostasis.
Hypothalamus
The hypothalamus acts as a bridge between the nervous system and the endocrine system by producing hormones that control the release of hormones from the pituitary gland.
