The endocrine gland that produces the most hormones is the anterior pituitary gland. This gland produces: -Growth Hormone (GH) -Lutenizing Hormone (LH) -Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) -Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (MSH) -Prolactin (PRL) -Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) -Beta-endorphin
Anterior pituitary secretes the hormone THS. That is thyroid stimulating hormone. In absence of the anterior pituitary the hormone is not secreted by the thyroid and you get the hypothyroidism.

Because it handles, controlls, and exchanges all chemicals needed for the brain and body. Without it all chemicals would go coo-coo and your body would not function. It is essential for controlling testostirone, estrogen, and progesterone, the chemicals needed for pregnancy and repoduction.
Puberty is started by a sudden increase in hormones, released by the Pituitary gland.
Pituitaries, technically, but it would mostly be "pituitary glands" since everything pituitary has to do with the pituitary gland, which is part of the brain.

Oxytocin is a mammalian hormone that acts primarily as a neuromodulator in the brain. It is best known for its roles in sexual reproduction, in particular during and after childbirth. It is released in large amounts after distension of the cervix and uterus during labor, facilitating birth, and after stimulation of the nipples, facilitating breastfeeding.

This type of Proliferative tumor would cause the anterior pituitary gland to produce too much TSH. Resulting in the Thyroid gland to become inlarged, also known as Hyperthyroidism.
Can a brain lesion cause excessive thirst even if the pituitary gland is normal? Also where would the lesion be located?
Without a pituitary gland, the body would struggle to produce essential hormones that regulate various bodily functions, such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction. This can lead to a range of hormonal imbalances and health issues that may require ongoing medical management and hormone replacement therapy.
There are different reasons for the pituitary gland to be "swollen". It could be something as simple as having depression, or if you have recently had a baby. Or it could be something more serious like lymphocytic hypophysitis or pituitary tumor or pituitary apoplexy. You would really need to see a pituitary specialist for it.
