PRL (prolactin) is not a tropin hormone. Tropin hormones are hormones that stimulate the release of another hormone from a target endocrine gland, while PRL is released directly from the anterior pituitary gland and stimulates milk production in females. TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone), GRH (growth hormone-releasing hormone), ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), and TRH (thyrotropin-releasing hormone) are all tropin hormones.
