What is Anatomy and Hormones of the Pituitary Gland about?

The pituitary gland, also called the hypophysis, is a pea-sized gland located at the base of the brain that secretes hormones directly into the bloodstream. It is divided into anterior and posterior lobes. The anterior lobe produces hormones that regulate other endocrine glands, while the posterior lobe extends from the hypothalamus. The pituitary gland is sometimes called the "master gland" because its hormones control other important endocrine systems in the body.
