FSH

LH

ACTH

TSH

12

What two hormones does the anterior pituitary produce that are not gonadotropin?

GH

PRL

13

What is the antagonist of PTH?

Calcitonin

21

Why are calcitonin and PTH antagonist?

Calcitonin decreases blood calcium levels by storing it in the bone

PTH increases blood calcium levels by pulling it from the bone
