The pituitary gland is one of the examples found in the human body, which reflects the accuracy of the Creator Almighty, despite the small size of this gland, which weighs about half a gram, and located below the brain in the cranial cavity in the human skull is called the “Turkish saddle,” but it is the dominant general commander On the secretion of hormones in the body so called this gland “messtro glands”.
The pituitary gland consists of three parts, the anterior part called the frontal aneurysm, the posterior posterior, and the middle. Where both the front and the middle secretion of certain hormones such as milk hormone prolactin, and hormone-directed adrenal cortex, thyroid hormone, growth hormone, hormone, hormone, stimulant for the follicle.
While the back store the hormones that the nervous part secretion of the hypothalamus, and regulates the secretion of secretion, in addition to secretion of the hormone pseudoeprosin, the hormone anti-diuretic.
In the event of deficiency or increase in the secretion of one of these hormones or more of the hormone led to the occurrence of pituitary disorder, which is also called the lack of activity of the pituitary gland, which in turn will give a lot of symptoms, based on the hormone disturbed which we will mention later.
With respect to the growth hormone produced by the pituitary gland, it should be noted that in the event of any increase in the secretion of growth hormone will result in the abnormal length of the body and the so-called “giant condition” and if this increase in growth hormone after puberty, “Peripheral nerve” disease, which is a large in the feet and hands specifically without the rest of the body.
On the other hand, any reduction and reduction in the secretion of pituitary gland to growth hormone will result in this dwarfism any shortness of stature and slow growth. As for the hormone milk, any increase in the secretion of pituitary gland to milk hormone will lead to infertility and secretion of milk.
The lack of hormone thyroid hormone will result in the thyroid gland deficiency in terms of functions, the hormone directed to the adrenal gland deficiency will lead to a deficiency of the function of the thyroid gland, “Addison’s disease.”
The hormone vasoprosin in the case of increased secretion led to the congestion or increase of fluids in the human body, which will inevitably be added within the cells, specifically the brain cells, which will lead to trouble and malfunction in the function and sometimes to get a brain cramps.
In the event that the shortage or lack of production has hit all the hormones of the pituitary gland, the entire adult and children with a particular disease.
