Answer by Dr Veena, MD (doctor) on Sun 25, Jan 2009 09:37am:

Hi, Anterior pituitary produces stimulating hormones under the effect of hormones produced from hypothalamus. The end organs that are stimulated from the effect of hormones produced from the anterior pituitary are adrenal cortex, thyroid gland, testes and ovaries. Adrenal medulla is not affected by pituitary. Best.
