What are hormones and what are their functions in the human body?

To my understanding, Hormones are known as chemical messengers that help in producing glands in the endocrine system. Hormones travel from the bloodstream to tissues and organs to help regulate various bodily functions like growth, metabolism, mood, sleep, and reproduction. It ensures that the bodywork is coordinated and balanced very well.

Name any three hormones and briefly mention their roles.
The three hormones that I know including their roles are:

• Insulin: This is the hormone that helps to regulate blood sugar, and it is produced by the pancreas.

• Thyroxine This is controlled by metabolism, body temperature, and energy levels.

• Estrogen: This is mainly found in females as it helps to regulate the menstrual cycle, reproductive system, and bone health.

Have you ever experienced any health issues related to hormonal imbalance? Share your experience or general knowledge.

Yes, I haven't experienced health issues related to hormonal imbalance besides the issue that women usually experience, which is the issue of the menstrual cycle. The menstrual cycle is also known as the seeing of period, which often happens to women every month, which is an experience that I do feel.
