(Basically, how can you tell that a hormone is secreted from the hypothalamus by its name alone)

Answer 1

The hormones secreted by hypothalamus are thyrotropin releasing hormone, gonadotropin releasing hormone, growth hormone releasing hormone, corticotropin releasing hormone, somatostatin, dopamine. Hylothalamus is related to pituitary gland. Hormones secreted by hpothalamus control the functioning of the hormones of pituitary gland. Oxytocin and vasopressin are another two hormones secrted by hypothalamus by its name alone because they are not secreted to stimulate the another hormones.
