Endocrine system - Thyroid Gland 4
Posted in 2013

How is my thyroid gland controlled?

There has to be some sort of mechanism that regulates very carefully the amount of T4 and T3 secreted by your thyroid gland so that the right - the normal - amounts are manufactured and delivered into the blood stream. The mechanism is very similar to that which regulates the central heating in a house where there is a thermostat in, say, the living room, which is set to a particular temperature and which activates the gas- or oil-fired furnace, or boiler that heats the hot water. In the case of the thyroid the ‘thermostat’ consists of a little gland, called the pituitary gland that lies underneath your brain in your skull. The pituitary senses the level of thyroid hormones in your blood stream, just as the thermostat in your living room senses the temperature. Under normal circumstances, if the level drops just a little below normal, the pituitary reacts by secreting a hormone called the thyroid stimulating hormone, also known as TSH, and this hormone activates the thyroid gland to put out more T4 and T3.
Conversely, when the thyroid hormone levels rise above normal the ‘thermostat’ senses this and the pituitary stops secreting TSH so that the thyroid gland stops working so hard and the secretion of T4 and T3 is reduced.

What causes a thyroid disorder?

There are many different causes of the different thyroid disorders. Most commonly the cause is due to autoimmune thyroid disease - a self-destructive process in which the body’s immune system attacks the thyroid cells as though they were foreign cells. In response the thyroid gland becomes underactive (hypothyroidism) or overactive (hyperthyroidism). You may find that other members of your family have thyroid problems or another autoimmune disorder.

My advise
1...  It is the system which will regulate the activity of various cells or organs
2...  The major glands of endocrine system are the  hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroids, adrenals, pineal body, and the reproductive organs (ovaries and testes). The pancreas is also a part of this system; it has a role in hormone production as well as in digestion.
3... These hormones are chemical messengers created by our body
4..  They transfer the messages of various glands to coordinate with one another.
5... We are discussing on reproductive organs how they protect and regulate functions of these organs.  All of you know about reproductive organs
6... Protect this system with your healthy habits, healthy life style, healthy food etc.. to avoid various health problems caused and particularly on reproductive system
7.. Thyroid Gland is important gland situated in the neck.  It plays the role in bone growth up to young age then it plays to protect entire bone system.  In children it plays the role to develop brain cells and nervous system.

Possible Male fertility Problems

Possible Male Fertility problems  My memories Possible Male Fertility Problems Posted in 2015  Sexually Transmitted diseases or other infections.  G enital infections such as chlamydia  and gonorrhea  can cause infertility in men. The infertility can often be resolved by treating the infection. Blockages, birth defects   , or physical damage . In  some cases, men are born with blockages in parts of the testicle or other abnormalities that prevent sperm from getting into the semen. Physical trauma to the testicles, prostate, and urethra can also result in fertility problems. Surgery can sometimes correct the problem. Retrograde ejaculation.  In  this disorder, semen doesn't come out of the penis  during ejaculation, but instead enters the bladder. It can be caused by diabetes , certain medications , and surgery to the bladder, prostate, or urethra. Genetic diseases .  Although it's rare, genetic illnesses such as cystic fibrosis  or chromosomal disorders can c

Reproduction of Human Beings - Male Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Reproduction of Human Beings- Male Posted in 2013 Reproduction in human beings is by sexual reproduction where both the male and female gametes fertilize to give rise to an embryo. The fertilization of human embryo occurs inside the body of the female. Thus, it is called Internal Fertilization. Human Beings are viviparous organisms who give rise to Embryos directly instead of laying eggs. Let us understand a little more about the male and female reproductive organs and the process of fertilization in them. Male Reproductive System Testes:  Male humans have two testes. They are situated in a bag of skin known as the scrotum. Scrotum lies outside the pelvic cavity. Sperm Duct:  These are thin ducts that arise from the testes. Prostrate Gland:  This gland is an accessory gland in males which pours its secretions into the sperm duct along with the

At present,  type 1 diabetes  cannot be prevented. The environmental triggers that are thought to generate the process that results in the destruction of the body’s insulin-producing cells are still under investigation. While there are a number of factors that influence the development of  type 2 diabetes , it is evident that the most influential are lifestyle behaviours commonly associated with urbanization. These include consumption of unhealthy foods and inactive lifestyles with sedentary behaviour. Studies from different parts of the world have established that  lifestyle modification  with  physical activity  and/or  healthy
