The hormones released in the Posterior Pituitary Gland are
1-ADH, it's an anti-diaretic hormone, it doesn't make you pee
2-Oxytocin, it is involved with uterine contractions, cuddle hormone, ,and its a post-pardom hormone
The hormones released in the Anterior Pituitary Gland are
1-growth hormones, they stimulate bone growth, they have metabolic effects, and it targets the liver causing it to release Somatomedia (a hormone)
2-ACTH, it targets the adrenal cortex which wil release cortisol
3-TSH, it targest the Thyroid causing it to release a thyroid hormone
4-LH/FSH, produces sex hormones and gamets
5-Prolactin, in women it produces milk, in men its responsible for the male refractory period
6-Melanocyte stimulating hormone, produces Melanin
7-Endorphines/Enkephalins, responsible for the "runners high"
The pituitary gland is responsible for secreting quite a number of hormones Some (but certainly not all) are listed below.
1. From its anterior portion:
2. From its posterior portion:
Different parts of the pituitary gland secrete different things for as many different reasons. It controls a lot of the body's functions.
Growth Hormones
The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland secretes growth hormone and lutenizing hormone.
Hormones are secreted by the endocrine.
The pituitary gland is connected to the hypothalamus by a small stalk. The interaction between the nervous system and endocrine is evident in this hypothalamus-pitutary complex. The pituitary gland produces and stores hormones. The hypothalamus simulate the release of hormones by the pituitary gland by way of nerves.The pituitary gland consist of two lobes. The posterior lobe stores and releases hormones, such as ADH and oxytocin. The anterior lobe of the pituitary gland produces its own hormone. It is richly supplied with nerves from the hypothalamus.

Posterior pituitary, produced in the hypothalamus
Growth Hormone is manufactured and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland in the brain.

Thyroid secretion hormone is secreted by the thyrotrope cells in d anterior pituitary gland
Oxytocin, also knwon as the "cuddle hormone" is produced in hypothalamic neurons.
Hormones are secreted by the endocrine.
