Glands producing hormones:

  1. Hypothalamus:
    1. While some people don’t consider it a gland, the hypothalamus produces multiple hormones which control the pituitary gland.
    2. It also seems to be involved in regulating many functions, including sleep-wake cycles, body temperature, and also appetite.
    3. It can also regulate the function of other endocrine glands.
  2. Pituitary.
    1. The pituitary gland is located below the hypothalamus.
    2. The hormones that it produces affect growth and reproduction.
    3. They can control the function of other endocrine glands.
  3. Pineal:
    1. The gland is found in the middle of your brain.
    2. It’s also important for your sleep-wake cycles.
