  • Nutrition: Hormones that regulate blood sugar levels such as insulin and glucagon,leptin which regulates fat reserves in the body, ghrelin which stimulates appetite, and PYY-36 which gives a feeling of satiety for several hours.
  • Growth, with the different growth hormones.
  • Reproduction: puberty, but also the woman's menstrual cycles, pregnancy and lactation (milk production).
  • The regulation of body temperature, with the thyroid hormones.
  • The regulation of circadian cycles with melatonin.
