Oxytocin and Antidiuretic Hormone (vasopressin) are made in the hypothalamus but released from the posterior pituitary gland.

Lutinising hormone, Folicle stimulating hormone, Thyroid stimulating hormone, Growth Hormone, Adreno-corticotropic hormone and prolactin are all made and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland.

Oxytocin-releases milk from breast and maintains contractions in labour.

Antidiuretic hormone- reduces the amount of water lost in urine

LH+FSH- Sex hormones involved in menstral cycle and testosterone/oestrogen production.

TSH - tells the thyroid to make more thyroxine- increases metabolism

Growth hormone- Increases uptake of amino acids into cells, promotes growth via Insulin like growth factors.

Prolactin makes the breasts produce milk.
