Alcohol consumption inhibits which hormone

Answer 1

Alcohol is the major substance which is abused throughout the planet due to its excess and how freely one can obtain alcohol without any hassles. Over-Consumption of alcohol can cause dysfunction in the endocrine system which is responsible for releasing hormones and maintains a secure communication and a strong connection to the various parts of body either directly or indirectly, further consumption of alcohol leads to chronic consumption making alcohol on the body in a large abundance causing disturbance and disruption in the whole body, constricting the messages or impulses for necessary hormonal balances, this will further lead to hormone imbalance and a fluctuative change in physiological appearance and changing behavioral levels making them go mentally unstable.
The alcohol majorly affects the Hypothalamic Pituitary Adrenal Axis or HPA axis or Adrenal axis in general, it also affects the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis or Gonadal axis or HPG axis, and the Hypothalamic Pituitary Thyroid Axis or HPT axis or the Thyroid axis, these all are the main centers of action or the Pituitary hormonal center situated ate the axial line of hypothalamic-pitutary plane. Alcohol inhibits luteinising hormone-releasing hormone or the LHRH and Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone or GnRH which are initiated by hypothalamic-pitutary Gonadal axis, at the Hypothalamic-pitutary Adrenal axis it inhibits the functioning of CRH or corticotropin-releasing Hormone which is the principal of inducing stress levels into the body. In Hypothalamic-pitutary Thyroid axis it inhibits the secretion of thyroxin or T4 and triiodothyronine or T3 and thyrotropin-releasing Hormone which are responsible for regulatory metabolism in each and every cell provided in the body.
