Endocrine organs produce hormones. Examples of endocrine organs are the thyroid, ovaries, testicles, and adrenal glands.
The target organs for luteinizing hormone (LH) are the ovaries and testes. In females, LH stimulates ovulation and the production of progesterone. In males, LH stimulates the production of testosterone in the testes.
Hormone production is primarily accomplished by the organs of the endocrine system, but the brain is a significant producer along with other "organs", such as fat cells (which produce estrogen, for instance). Organs of the endocrine system include the thyroid, parathyroids, adrenal glands, thymus gland, pituitary gland, plus "controlling organs" such as the hypothalamus and others.
erythropoitin secreted from kidneys stimulate rbc production.
The heart does not produce hormones. The other organs listed—skin, liver, and kidney—all play roles in hormone production and regulation in the body.
The hormone primarily affecting the reproductive organs is gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). GnRH regulates the secretion of other hormones such as luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), which in turn control the functions of the gonads (ovaries and testes) and their production of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone.
The luteinizing hormone stimulates ovulation in the female and production of the female sex hormone progesterone.
Increase in thyroid hormone will lower TSH production, because there is a feedback loop between TSH that stimulates the production of thyroid hormone and the hormone that then will then regulate the stimulation of TSH so that thyroid hormone is not over produced.
The hormone prolactin will cause milk production.
No, but insulin is a hormone that regulates the body's production of glucose.
Many things are necessary for the production of thyroid hormone. *Fuel* for the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone however, is iodine.
Tropic hormones are hormones that regulate the secretion of other hormones from endocrine glands. They act on target glands to stimulate or inhibit the release of specific hormones, which then exert effects on various tissues and organs in the body. Examples include thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH).
The purpose of fats is to help store and use energy, padding of the organs, hormone production, as well as signaling and stabalizing processes in the body.
