Hormones of the Hypothalamus and Pituitary Gland:

Hormone	Origin	Target	Effect
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)	Made in Hypothalamus Stored in Posterior Pituitary Gland	Kidney Tubules	Increase aquaporin proteins to increase water retention.

Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)	Made in anterior pituitary gland	Thyroid cells	Triggers release of thyroid hormones
Prolactin	Made in anterior pituitary gland	Mammary glands	Stimulates growth of mammary glands
Luteinizing hormone
Follicle stimulating hormone
Growth hormone

Cortisol
Androgens
Catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine)

Answer 1

Luteinizing hormone (LH, also known as lutropin and sometimes lutrophin) is a hormone produced by gonadotropic cells in the anterior pituitary gland. ..

LH (luteinizing hormone)Ovaries / testes (Leydig cells

Effect In women, the hormone stimulates the ovaries to produce oestradiol. Two weeks into a woman's cycle, a surge in luteinizing hormone causes the ovaries to release an egg during ovulation. If fertilization occurs, luteinizing hormone will stimulate the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone to sustain the pregnancy

FSH

Anterior pituitary is origin

FSH (follicle stimulating hormone)Ovaries / testes (tubules)

Target

Follicle stimulating hormone is one of the hormones essential to pubertal development and the function of women's ovaries and men's testes. In women, this hormone stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles in the ovary before the release of an egg from one follicle at ovulation. It also increases oestradiol production
