<h3>What does the term "antagonistic hormones" mean?</h3>
  • Antagonistic hormones are those that work to bring body circumstances back from extremes to within acceptable bounds.
  • An illustration of how the endocrine system maintains homeostasis through the action of antagonistic hormones is the regulation of blood glucose concentration (by negative feedback).

<h3>How do antagonists to hormones function?</h3>
  • Infertility, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids are just a few of the diseases that gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists are used to treat in women.
  • GnRH is a hormone released by the hypothalamus that is the target of GnRH antagonists, which stop it from functioning.
