Endocrine System

hormones are very important.main functions include:- the way the body uses food; growth; sex and reproduction; the regulation of the composition of the blood; the body's reaction to emergencies and the control of hormones themselves.

Pick three:

Adrenal Glands

Hypothalamus

Ovaries

Pancreas

Pineal Gland

Pituitary Gland

Testes

Thymus

Thyroid Gland

The United States Food and Drug Administration recommends 150 micrograms of iodine per day for both men and women. This is necessary for proper production of thyroid hormone. Natural sources of iodine include sea life, such as kelp and certain seafood, as well as plants grown on iodine-rich soil. Salt for human consumption is often enriched with iodine and is referred to as iodized salt.1

Yes it is very possible to survive without a thyroid gland. After the surgerical removal of the thyroid, say abt 4-6weeks after, the patient is given a pill of radioactive iodine. After this, the patient would be on iodine pills for life so as to aid the production of the thyroid hormone which no humna can survive without. I hope Ive been able to answer your question.

A deficiency that causes the thyroid gland to swell is iodine deficiency. This is also believed to be the main cause of goiter.

it means: nodule-a rounded lump or knot; heterogeneous means "composed of unlike parts. Therefore a rounded lump composed of dissimilar tissues on the thyroid (gland) located in the base of throat region. may or may not require medical attention.

TSH is commonly accepted today as the first-line diagnostic test for overall thyroid function. In general, a normal TSH level (0.3-4.5) indicates normal thyroid function. If the TSH is high or low, then T4 and T3 (and their "free" forms, FT4 and FT3) are evaluated to narrow the diagnosis.

Nodular thickening of the adrenal gland means that cancer could be present. It would normally be treated by surgical removal of cancerous tumors.

yes. the endocrine part is the hormone secreting cell (hepatocytes).

The four glands, each of which is the size of a grain of rice, that are located around the surface of the thyroid gland is the parathyroid gland. The parathyroid glands control calcium regulation, which is the amount of calcium that is in the blood and within the bones.

Probably, for about a minute or so. Or however long it takes for the heart and brain to become necrotic.

WELL YOU BECOME ADDICTED TO ADRENALINE BY USING IT CONSTANTLY

**********

If you constantly put yourself in a scary or exciting situation constantly, then you will get addicted to that feeling. The more you use adrenaline, the more you need it to feel satisfied.

But don't do it.

**********

There are physiological mechanisms which explain how adrenaline is addictive.

Adrenaline releases glucose into the blood as well as other effects such as increased heart rate and breathing rate.

Female hormones are oestrogen and progesterone and are produced in the pituitary gland in the brain and ovaries. In males the hormones are testosterone and are produced also in the pituitary gland and the testes.

It affects the nervous system.

It affects both those systems along with many others. It effects the endocrine system, because the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland, both secreting organs in the endocrine system, are located in the brain. If a stroke were to occur in those regions, the hypothalamus or the pituitary gland would not be able to secrete the hormones needed to keep homeostasis. The brain also controls the nervous system. So, a stroke does affect both.

It is used by the Thyroid gland to produce its hormones called: T1, T2, T3, and T4. If not enough iodine is available for it to produce these hormones a swelling of the Thyroid will develop called "Goiter".

If you are only being tested for thyroid function, and your doctor has not asked you to do otherwise, you do not need to fast.

If you are undergoing a physical exam for your hyperthyroidism, it is allowed, although unwise to indulge in coffee before the exam, as caffeine can make your hyperthyroid symptoms seem much worse. This would potentially lead the physician to get an unclear impression of the impact of the dysfunction to your system. With an altered impression, it is possible you could end up over-treated for your condition.

The hormone that regulates sodium blood levels via the kidneys is aldosterone.
