The hypothalamus, a part of the brain, is responsible for many hormones. Understanding these brainy hormones will help you take control of your body and your health. The hypothalamus produces hormones that control the production of hormones in the pituitary gland.
The hypothalamus is the main neural control center (brain part that controls endocrine glands). The pituitary gland lies just below the hypothalamus. The pituitary gland is a small endocrine gland that secretes a variety of hormones (organic chemicals that regulate the body's physiological processes).t the rear of the brain is the cerebellum. The cerebellum is similar to the cerebrum: each has hemispheres that control the opposite side of the body and are covered by gray matter and surface folds. In the cerebellum, the folds are called folia; in the cerebrum, sulci.
