Answer:

Pituitary gland

Explanation:

Your pituitary gland (also known as hypophysis) is a small, pea-sized gland located at the base of your brain below your hypothalamus. It sits in its own little chamber under your brain known as the sella turcica. It’s a part of your endocrine system and is in charge of making several essential hormones. Your pituitary gland also tells other endocrine system glands to release hormones. One of the hormones that it makes is the Thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH stimulates your thyroid to produce thyroid hormones that manage your metabolism, energy levels, and your nervous system.

Can a hetnia feel like a small bulge above your pubic bone
xxMikexx [17]
Hello!! I would think so. I haven’t had one, but many people in my family have and they say the same thing. Above the pubic bone/bellybutton. They say it hurts more when they sit down or bend over. I do know that you can get them from lifting things that are too heavy and put a strain on your internal organs. I hope this has helped!! Have a great day.
