The pituitary is often referred to as the ‘master gland’, because it produces hormones that control several of the other endocrine or hormone glands. It makes growth hormone, puberty hormones, thyroid stimulating hormone, prolactin and Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone (ACTH, which stimulates the adrenal stress hormone, cortisol). It also makes the fluid balance hormone called anti-diuretic hormone (ADH).
