Hormones are chemical messengers produced by glands that regulate various body functions including growth, metabolism, mood, energy, weight, sleep, and stress. The eight major hormones include Growth Hormone (GH) from the pituitary gland that controls growth and tissue regeneration, Thyroid Hormone (T3, T4) from the thyroid gland that regulates metabolism and energy production, Insulin from the pancreas that manages blood glucose levels, Adrenaline (Epinephrine) from the adrenal glands that triggers the fight-or-flight response, Estrogen from the ovaries that develops female characteristics and regulates the menstrual cycle, Testosterone from the testes that builds muscle mass and maintains bone density, Cortisol from the adrenal glands that manages stress response and inflammation, and Melatonin from the pineal gland that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. When hormones become imbalanced, it can lead to various health issues such as stunted growth, weight changes, diabetes, anxiety, mood swings, and sleep disorders.
