The hormonal system (called the endocrine system in medical terminology) has various glands that release different hormones.
Hormones are like the body’s communication system. They take messages from one part of the body (the gland) to tell another part of the body (the target cell) to do something important. The endocrine glands influence reproduction, metabolism, growth and many other functions.
Below is a list of the main glands (see diagram for their location), some of the hormones they produce and what effects they have on the body.
Hypothalamus: an area in the base of the brain that links the brain to the hormonal system.
