Hypothalamus (Anti-Aging)

an area of the brain that is believed to be the command center for instructions to the endocrine system.

Hypothalamus (Beauty)

Part of the brain involved in endocrine mechanisms.

Hypothalamus (Biology)

1. The portion of the forebrain that serves as the control center for hunger, thirst, body temperature, and blood pressure.

Hypothalamus (Dairy Production)

Part of the brain which is involved in hormonal regulation of reproduction by secreting the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). The hypothalamus is also involved in the regulation of basic body processes such as body temperature.

Hypothalamus (Day Spa)

The portion of the brain that regulates the metabolic process; strongly influences the pituitary gland.

Hypothalamus (Endocrinology)

The portion of the brain that stimulates the pituitary gland.

Hypothalamus (Female Health)

A small and important organ in the centre of the brain that interprets signals from the environment and controls body temperature, breathing, heart rate and reproduction. Emotional signals are translated into hormonal and other changes.

Hypothalamus (Fertility)

A gland in the brain that releases GnRH (see GnRH), which in turn stimulates the production of LH and FSH by the pituitary gland

Hypothalamus (Health)

Small structure at the base of the brain that regulates many body functions, including appetite, body temperature, and stimulation of the pituitary gland.

Hypothalamus (Health and Beauty)

Part of the brain involved in endocrine mechanisms.

Hypothalamus (Hormone Replacement Therapy)

The portion of the brain's limbic system that integrates incoming information and either increases or decreases the release of certain hormones that instruct the pituitary gland to release hormones.
Incontinence
Incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine. Babies are incontinent until their nervous systems mature and they learn to control their urine flow. Incontinence can occur to males and females, old and young. It can be mild or severe. It usually can be treated

Hypothalamus (Horse Health)

The part of the brain concerned with operation of much of the autonomic (unconscious) nervous system, the production of specific hormones that are subsequently stored in and released by the pituitary gland, and the regulation of body temperature, sleep cycles, and food and water intake.

Hypothalamus (Human Body)

the region of the brain lying below the thalamus. The hypothalamus controls water balance, sleep, temperature, appetite and blood pressure. It also co-ordinates patterns of activity and controls emotions.

Hypothalamus (Huntingtons Disease)

Small structure at the base of the brain that regulates many body functions, including appetite and body temperature.

Hypothalamus (Nutrition)

A portion of the brain that regulates many aspects of metabolism, including body temperature and the hunger response.

Hypothalamus (Pituitary)

A thumbnail-sized endocrine gland located in the brain just above the pituitary gland to which it is connected; the hypothalamus normally contains cells which make and release GnRH.

Hypothalamus (Prader-Willi Syndrome)

The part of the brain that controls appetite, body temperature, hormones, and other vital functions.

Hypothalamus (Science)

A gland at the base of the brain that sends messages to other endocrine glands; function in the maintaining of constant internal body conditions

Hypothalamus (Sex)

A part of the brain which is vital in regulating many body functions including sex hormone production.

Hypothalamus (Sexual Health)

A small area in the brain that regulates basic animal functions.
