    process by which glands release hormones into bloodstream

    Hormone secretion is the process by which glands in the body release hormones into the bloodstream. These hormones act as chemical messengers that regulate various physiological functions, such as growth, metabolism, and mood. For example, the thyroid gland secretes thyroid hormones that control the body's metabolic rate, while the adrenal glands secrete cortisol, which helps the body respond to stress.
