Answer:

oxytocin

Explanation:

The pituitary gland is a small gland that divides into two distinct portions, the anterior and posterior lobes, and is located at the base of the brain.

The anterior pituitary, also known as the adenohypophysis, secretes six important peptide hormones, they are:

  • The growth hormone;
  • Adrenocorticotropin;
  • The thyroid stimulating hormone;
  • Prolactin;
  • Two gonadotropic homons - FSH and LH;

Oxytocin is not a hormone produced by the anterior pituitary but by the posterior pituitary, which is known as the neurohypophysis.
