Stress

amygdala

releases hormones to help with reproduction, thyroid regulation, growth, emotions, water level, stress response

hypothalamus

releases several hormones that relate to growth metabolism reproduction stress/trauma lactation water balance and childbirth

pituitary gland

release hormones that help regulate the body's response to stress as well as metabolism, blood pressure, and the immune system.

creates enzymes to break down sugar/fat/starch and hormones to regular blood sugar, appetite, stomach acid, when to empty the stomach

pancreas

regulates sleep/wake cycles and secretes melatonin

pineal gland

plays a major role in the growth and development of human body / METABOLISM

thyroid gland

makes white blood cells until puberty, when t-cells havae been made. releases hormones that control pituitary gland

thymus

produce hormones estrogen/progesterone, regulate reproduction/menstration 

ovaries

produces sperm/testosterone helps with growth of male body: deepening voice, developing muscles, body hair
