Your Answer: the action of a hormone decreasing the production of that hormone as a regulatory process 1- The effect or increased level of the hormone acts to shut down the continued release of the hormone. 2- The brain is constantly monitoring hormone levels to keep levels within a certain range or set-point (homeostasis).
