Pituitary Gland
Aka: the master gland Secretes many
important hormones When it's not working it
creates a lot of problems
Located at the base of the brain
Hypothalamus controls almost all secretions of the pituitary.

Thyroid Gland
small gland; shaped like a butterfly Located in the lower part of the neck Main hormones released:
– triiodothyronine (T3)– thyroxine (T4)
Hormones deliver energy to cells of the bodyEormously important for teens because the manufactured hormones help in controlling the metabolism and growth of the entire body

Adrenal Gland
Two triangular shaped glands; one on top of each kidney Two parts:
– Adrenal cortex:-> Outer part-> produces hormones called cortisteroids->influence or regulate salt and water balance in the body, the body’s response to stress, metabolism, the immune system, and sexual development and functions
– eeeeeee– Adrenal medulla:
-> Inner part-> produces catecholamines (i.e epinephrine a.k.a adrenaline)-> increases blood pressure and heart rate when the body experiences stress

Pancreas The first section of the
small intestine. Makes digestive juices
such as insulin Insulin controls the amount
of sugar in the blood A compound gland
because it is both exocrine and endocrine
Controls carbohydrate metabolism
Most common pancreatic disease is diabetes

So......We Decided That
GONADS ARE THE MOST VITAL ENDOCRINE ORGAN IN YOUR BODY!
Without gonads, the human race could not be continued
Also as known as the reproductive system, the actual organs that produce the gamate.– In the male, the testes produce sperms.– In the female, the ovaries produce eggs. – When the sperm and the egg combines, a
possibility of an offspring

Gonads Diseases (Cont.) Congenital abnormalities
– Kallmann syndrome• Decrease functioning of the sex hormone-producing glands, caused by a
deficiency of a hormone
Cancers– Ovarian cancer– Testicular cancer– Penile cancer
Infection– Genital warts– Herpes simplex– Pubic lice
Functional problems– Impotence
– Premature ejaculation

No more balls….
If the gonads are removed, there won’t be reproduction.
Female: Hysterectomy– Removal of the
uterus Male: Vasectomy
– Sterilization
