Sheehan's Disease

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Assalammualaikum WBT and Salam 1Malaysia people (^_^) tak jawab dosa~

tonight I want to share something related to Physiology, the Endocrine system. For this year, Physiology is divided into several sub-subject..1 of them is Endocrine..

what is Endocrine system?
- is a system which regulate/secrete a type of hormone direct to the blood stream to regulate the body function.

okai I think enough for that brief intro..hehe..actually I dont want to tell about what the endocrine system and so on..more specifically aku mahu share apa disorder yang will happen when something bad happen dekat system ni keluar sudah BM haha layan~

endocrine system is very important to us..very very important..if there's a damage in the gland or the amount of hormone secretion increase or decrease from normal value, we or people around us will suffer from certain disease..depend which glands or which hormone is effected..

for today, I would like to share more or less about what disorder will occur if and only if Pituitary gland is damage or secrete more or less hormone than the normal value, Pituitary Gland is one of the endocrine gland..payah jugak tulis fully english ni -.-''



Pituitary gland is subdivided into 3 parts, 1st neurohypophysis(post.pituitary), 2nd intermediate lobe and 3rd is adenohypophysis(ant.pituitary)..each part secrete/release difference hormone =) oleh kerana terlalu banyak, so I wish to talk about disorder of Anterior Pituitary a.k.a Adenohypophysis..

Adenohypophysis release/secrete :

Pituitary Gland

  • Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH)
  • Adrenocorticotrophic hormone(ACTH) Carticotropin
  • Gonadotrophins
  • Lipotrophin
  • Growth Hormone (GH)


aku penat mau writing dlm english dekat sini, penat otak fikir ayat..haha =D aku mau improve english aku bha..huhu.. hurm..kita plus minus la kan english dengan melayu~ hehe okai!

This disorder is very rare, don't worry. But it may occur if the mother give birth to twins or triplets..ada kemungkinan pendarahan teruk akan terjadi kepada ibu terbabit.
