What are different thyroid levels?

Thyroid levels are measurements of the thyroid hormones in your body. Low TSH suggests you have too much thyroid hormone circulating. High TSH suggests you don't have enough thyroid hormone circulating.

What is the major structural distinction between the anterior and posterior pituitary?

The anterior pituitary is made of glandular tissue and consists of multiple capillary beds or a portal system while the posterior pituitary is made up of neural tissue and has a single capillary bed.

Isthmus in the thyroid gland of a human body?

There is no isthmus in thyroid gland. It is in the uterus. Thanx by Dr. Furqan Sarmad

Why could a disease that affects the pituitary gland have a negative effect on the adrenal gland?

The glands are a communication system within the body. The Pituitary and Adrenal gland are part of the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis. They influence each other by direct communication and feedback system. Thus if one of the glands is unbalanced it will affect the others - all the glands will be affected depending on how the body attempts to balance things.

What gland is TSH made by?

TSH, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone, als known as Thyrotropin is produced by Pituitary gland which regulates and stimulates Thyroid gland to produce Thyroxin hormone. TSH is a glycoprotein and made up of 210 amino acids ( alpha chain of 92 amino acids and beta chain of 118 amino acids).

Can thyroid nodules cause thyroid to not work well?

A thyroid nodule is a lump in or on the thyroid gland. Any time a lump is discovered in thyroid tissue, the possibility for cancer needs to be considered. Fortunately, the vast majority of thyroid nodules tend to be benign.

What gland secretes pth?

Parathyroid hormone (PTH), parathormone or parathyrin, is secreted by the chief cells of the Parathyroid Glands as a Polypeptide containing 84 amino acids.

Basically these glands are present behind the thyroid gland and varies in number. The main function of PTH is to increase Blood Ca2+ level.

Do endocrine glands release their chemical productions through delivery tubes true or false?

I think it is false becausethe glands of the endocrine system do not have delivery tubes!

Can anxiety or a lot of adrenaline kill or harm you?

There is research to suggest that anxiety can lead to CHD (coronary heart disease) but the research available is far from conclusive. There is ample research to suggest that there are no links at all between anxiety and CHD thus the pursuit of debate amongst psychologists continues. You can find research for both arguments via Google. The adrenaline aspect of the question is rather vague. A release of adrenaline will increase the heart rate which could technically cause problems for those with heart problems although this would be rare. I would recommend researching broken heart syndrome, an interesting condition which can be caused by emotional stress resulting in a prolonged surge of adrenaline causing what can appear like a heart attack.

On the other hand, if your question is in relation to taking adrenaline as a drug then yes, to much adrenaline can increase your heart rate to quickly and to a BPM (beats per minute) higher than it's capability. A rough guide to your maximum heart rate would be to deduct your age from 220. Finally, there is research to suggest that the increase in heart rate from adrenaline can pump toxins around your body rapidly resulting in sudden death. The best way to understand this theory would be to research the toxins which build up in a limb after applying a tourniquet. Releasing the tourniquet can cause the toxins to kill if released in to the blood stream. The theory that toxins can kill when adrenaline is introduced is the similar in the sense that the increased heart rate can suddenly pump around toxins which may have collected. Sorry that i have had to resort to providing so much unconclusive evidence.

How many milligrams of armour thyroid does a person without a thyroid normally take?

Thyroid supplementation is very individualized. There is no one specific dosage for adults or children. Patients are tested and examined frequently until their labs improve and their symptoms are minimized.

What are two endocrine glands or regions that are important in the stress response?

The adrenal glands are chiefly responsible for the stress response in the body; however, the hypothalamus plays a role because it causes the pituitary gland to secrete hormones that travel to the adrenal glands initiating the stress response within the body. The adrenal gland is also known as emergency gland and releases more adrenaline under stress.
