Types of Hormones: Endocrine cells and glands produce hormones, which function as messenger molecules. There are 230 different kinds of hormones in the human body. Amino acid-based neurochemicals make up hormones. These enter the bloodstream straight from the glands. These hormones are in charge of a variety of processes, including growth and reproduction as well as digestion.
These can be harmful in excess or insufficient amounts in the body, and they can lead to a variety of health issues. We will read about a few of these significant hormones that the body produces.
Insulin
Its job is to help the body use glucose as energy, lowering the chance of developing diabetes. A deficiency or malfunction of insulin can lead to the diabetes problem.
Happy Hormones
Our bodies contain four different kinds of happy hormones: endorphin, oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine. The roles that these four hormones play are diverse. Their proper secretion ensures that the mind is content. These hormones are properly regulated by a healthy diet, regular exercise, meditation, social interaction, and hearty laughter.
Melatonin
Our sleep patterns are linked to these hormones.
Thyroid Hormone
This hormone regulates the body’s energy levels and has a connection to metabolism.
Hormone Parathyroid
The hormone parathyroid governs the levels of calcium. This hormone raises blood calcium levels when calcium levels are extremely low.
Progesterone and Oestrogen
These are hormones that are specific to women and are crucial to the process of conception.
Growth Hormone
This hormone regulates our body mass and height. This is particularly crucial for young people’s development.
Testosterone
It affects both men and women, although it mostly affects men. The body needs this hormone to sustain its energy levels, health, and menstruation.
Cortisol
This hormone aids the body in overcoming or adjusting to stress of any kind. Another name for it is fight hormone.
