what is homostasis
These hormones drive the homeostatic feedback loops that keep the body healthy and in equilibrium.
What is homeostasis?
how the Endocrine System works
The systems starts by Endocrine glands releasing hormones into the blood stream. Releasing the hormones causes to travel to cells in other parts of the human body. These Endocrine hormones controls mood, reproduction, metabolism, growth and development, as well as the functions of our body. The Endocrine system controls how much hormones are released in to your body

organs and organ functions within the Endocrine System
hypothalamus, pituitary, and
thyroid
- The Hypothalamus helps simulate many important processes in the body and creates hormones
- The pituitary gland's main function is to secrete hormones into your bloodstream.
- The thyroid is part of the endocrine system, it produces, store, and release hormones into the bloodstream so the hormones can reach the body's cells
hypothalamus, pituitary, and
thyroid
parathyroids,adrenals, and
pineal body
- The parathyroids produce a hormone called parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH raises the blood calcium level.
- Adrenal glands produce hormones that help regulate your metabolism, immune system, blood pressure, response to stress and other essential functions.
- pineal body is known for producing and regulating some hormones, including melatonin.
ovaries and testes
- ovaries are the primary female reproductive organs. they also secrete hormones,
- testes they secrete hormones, primarily testosterone, and are primary male reproduction organs.
