What Hormones are given after the removal of the anterior pituitary gland?
The anterior pituitary not only produces hormones for its own use but also produces hormones for use of other glands. The anterior pituitary is sometimes referred to as the "master gland". The Growth Hormone or Somatotropic Hormone is produced during childhood and should no longer be produced by the adult anterior pituitary. The hormones that it produces for itself are: Prolactin is produced in quantity after childbirth and stimulates development of the mammary glands. It is also involved in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates. Malanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (MSH) stimulates melanocytes to synthesize melanin; a dark pigment that provides skin color and absorbs ultraviolet radiation in sunlight. Anterior pituitary hormones that regulate other glands: Thyriod Stimulating Hormone (TSH) which aids in the production of thyroxin in the thyroid. Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) which aids in the production of cortisol in the adrenal cortex. Gonadotropic Hormones (GnRH)which aids in the production of sex hormones (follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and leutinizing hormone (LH)) in the ovaries and testes. Additionally, the anterior pituitary produces endorphin, a neuropeptide with pain suppressing capabilities. In order to answer this question, the age of the adult would play a role in the hormone supplements required and could include all or a subset of supplements for the hormones discussed above. This answer is based on research from various sites found on the internet. It is not a clinical finding by the person answering the question and is not intended to provide medical advice. A doctor should be consulted should before embarking on any supplement regime. Answered by Joe Bigley.The hormones needed by an adult whose anterior pituitary gland has been removed are growth hormone (GH), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), which is called interstitial cell-stimulating hormone (ICSH) in the male (Applegate, 2000, 209). If the patient does not have replacement for TSH, the thyroid gland will not be stimulated to produce thyroid hormones (Hypothyroidism, 2002). Thyroid hormones are produced by the thyroid gland and affects growth, development, and cellular processes. The thyroid gland uses iodine to produce thyroid hormones, the most important ones being thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), wgrowth hormone
Milk letdown is a neuroendocrine reflex arc that requires which hormone?
Oxytocin is the hormone required for milk letdown. It is released from the pituitary gland in response to suckling or breast stimulation.
How is the menstrual cycle an example of a feedback mechanism?
The feedback mechanism is an aftereffect or reaction due to a certain stimuli given back by an output. The two examples can be considered feedback mechanisms since they are the aftereffect of a stimulus introduced to the body.
Mineral is responsible for affecting the normal functioning of the thyroid gland?
Iodine is required to produce thyroid hormones.Besides iodine Selenium is also required by the thyroid gland as major co-factors in its function to regulate metabolism.Zinc is required for the production of thyroid hormones.
Are hormones secreted in large or small amounts Are they secreted constantly or only based on the bodies demands Are their responses longer and faster or shorter and slower than the nervous system?
Hormones have a wide variety of actions, over a range of concentrations and of varying periods of time. Typically hormones provide a slower response to a stimulus than a nervous response. many hormones require a trigger that has a nervous response. most hormones act over a longer time period, these time periods are not measured in milliseconds as are nervous responses. Hormones are released when required, this means that they can be secreted over prolonged periods of time - for example the growth hormones and sex hormones. or only when needed such as the case for insulin or adrenalin (epinephrine).
What hormones are necessary for egg cell production?
Follicle stimulating hormone from anterior pituitary is required for maturation of the follicle. There is brisk rise of luteinizing hormone, also called as LH, to brake the follicle and liberate the ovum.
Where are LH and FSH produced?
Gonadotropic hormones FSH (Follicle stimulating hormone) and LH (Luteinizing hormone) are produced and secreted by the gonadotrophs in anterior pituitary. These are the trophic hormones that act on the ovaries and testes. Required for ovulation, spermatogenesis, biosynthesis of estrogens and androgens. They are also used therapeutically to promote fertility. Their secretion is regulated by the hypothalamus GRH (gonadotropin releasing hormone), where GRH stimulates the release of FSH and LH and FSH and LH feedback and decreases levels of GRH release. Estrogens and androgens also feedback and inhibit the gonadotrophs in the pituitary and feedback on the hypothalamus.

What hormone is produced in the hypothalamus?
[Erased WRONG/error answer because -- Not enough details. -- ].
What organs are involved in Oogenesis?
Oogenesis is the process of forming female gametes (eggs) and it primarily occurs in the ovaries. The hypothalamus and pituitary gland in the brain also play roles in regulating the hormones (FSH and LH) required for oogenesis to occur.
How is the reproductive system and endocrine system similar?
The endocrine system controls the functioning of the reproductive system. The responsible endocrine glands are known as the gonads. The gonads secrete sex hormones, which are responsible for sexual development, and the associated growth spurts in the body. They are also responsible for the development of secondary sexual characteristics. Other hormones also affect the functioning of the reproductive system. These include the gonadotropin releaseing hormones from the hypothalamus, the pituitary hormones like prolactin, insulin from the pancreas, and thyroxine from the thyroid.
Why is cholesterole important for the body?
It gives required energy to the body when it is needed...
What dietary source is required for production of thyroid hormones?
That source is called as potassium iodide. It is less available in hilly areas.
Milk letdown is a neuroendocrine reflex arc that requires which hormone?
Oxytocin is the hormone required for milk letdown. It is released from the pituitary gland in response to suckling or breast stimulation.
How does the permissive hormones thyroid hormone and epinephrine work together?
Wikipedia: "In biology, permissiveness is a certain relationship between hormones and the target cell. It can be applied to describe situations in which the presence of one hormone, at a certain concentration, is required in order to allow a second hormone to fully affect the target cell. For example, thyroid hormone increases the number of receptors available for epinephrine at the latter's target cell, thereby increasing epinephrine's effect at that cell. Without the thyroid hormone, epinephrine would have only a weak effect"
What hormone does the adrenals make?
Adrenal glands produce hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, steroids, cortisol, and cortisone, and chemicals such as adrenalin (epinephrine), norepinephrine, and dopamine. When the glands produce more or less hormones than required by the body, disease conditions may occur.
Which process is not required for an animal to obtain energy from food?
Photosynthesis is not required for animals to obtain energy from food, as it is the process by which plants and some other organisms convert light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose. Animals must digest and metabolize food, but they do not perform photosynthesis.
