THE ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND

As I live my life day by day
My body works in simple ways
With its different parts
Oh well, its true!
They really function for me and you

One is the greatest Pituitary Gland
Located in the brain of every human
Such secretes several hormones
And this is how the action goes…
We’ll start of first with these two hormones
FSH and LH- that makes a woman blow
A blow that signals the sperm to go
So that a baby will soon follow

Next is the mom’s problem on lactation
That’s why the body asks of this hormone
This is called the Prolactin
Which facilitates the milk- making

Then the ACTH has its own way
On how to help the body stay
Stay on how it’s supposed to be
Salt, sugar and sex- a balance with these three!

When you need something to be done
Ask pituitary to release one
Thyroid hormone, that would be
Fuelled by TSH essentially

Lastly is the one I love
Who I think everybody wants
It is the Growth Hormone that helps us grow
Especially if released in proper dose :)

This is one of the functions I know
That takes place inside of you
Something that is so important
And you should know the worth of such!
