Hormonal responses

Hormonal responses are the body's way of signaling and adjusting to different situations, like stress, exercise, or changes in activity. Hormones are chemical messengers released by glands, such as the adrenal or thyroid glands, into the bloodstream. They travel to target organs or tissues to trigger specific effects, like increasing energy, regulating mood, or controlling growth. For example, during stress, hormones like adrenaline prepare your body to react quickly. These responses help maintain balance, respond to challenges, and support overall health by coordinating various bodily functions seamlessly.
