Hormone's are your body's chemical messengers. They travel in your bloodstream to tissues or organs. They work slowly, over time, and affect many different processes, including the following: growth and development, metabolism - how your body gets energy from the foods you eat, sexual function, reproduction, and mood.

- Adrenocorticotropic hormone
- Prolactin
- Follicle-stimulating hormone
- Luteinizing hormone
Posterior Pituitary
- Antidiuretic hormone
Thyroid
- Thyroxine and triiodothyronine
- Calcitonin

Endocrine glands are ductless organs that secrete hormones directly into the blood or the fluid surrounding a cell rather than through a duct.
Exocrine glands  are organs that secrete their products into ducts (they are duct glands).

Endocrine
1) Hypothalamus: controls hormone production by releasing different chemicals into the pituitary gland
2) Pituitary: the master gland, influences or controls the rest of the endocrine system
3) Pineal: connects the endocrine system with the nervous system and produces several important hormones
4) Thyroid: releases hormones that control metabolism and control the way energy is used
5) Parathyroid: essential for proper bone development
6) Thymus: crucial to normal immune function on childhood
7) Adrenal: influences the way energy is used and releases adrenaline when under stress
8) Pancreas: releases insulin the body needs to metabolize sugar
9) Ovaries: produce estrogen and progesterone, and release egg cells
10) Testes: secrete testosterone

Exocrine
1) Salivary gland: secretes saliva
2) Pancreas: secretes enzyme amylase, trypsin and lipase that help digest carbohydrates, proteins and fats
3) Sperm: produce hyaluronidase
4) Sweat glands: secrete sweat that regulates body temperature
5) Sebaceous gland: secretes sebum
6) Lachrymal glands: secrete water to moisten our eyes

Hypothalamus
- There are many causes of hypothalamic dysfunction. The most are surgery, traumatic brain injury, tumors, and radiation.

Other causes include:
-Nutrition problems, such as eating disorders (anorexia), extreme weight loss
-Tumors
-Blood vessel problems in the brain, such as aneurysm, pituitary apoplexy, Subarachnoid hemorrhage.
-Genetic disorders, such as Prader-Will syndrome, familial diabetes insipidus, Kallmann syndrome
-Infections and swelling (inflammation)

Pituitary
-Hypersecretion
-Hyposecretion
-Tumor mass effects - as a pituitary tumor grows and presses against the pituitary gland or other areas in the brain, it may cause headaches, vision problems, or other health effects

Pineal
-Pineal gland cyst
-Parinaud's syndrome
-Pinealoblastoma
-Papillary tumors of the pineal region
-Pinealoma
-Pineocytoma
-Germinoma

Thyroid
-Thyroid nodules
-Hypothyroidism
-Hyperthyroidism
