Which hormones are known to increase with age?

The correct choice identifies a group of hormones that significantly change with age. As individuals grow older, the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), parathyroid hormone (PTH), norepinephrine, testosterone, and estrone typically increase.

This increase is often associated with the aging processes in both men and women. For instance, FSH and LH commonly rise as women transition into menopause, reflecting changes in ovarian function. Similarly, TSH can increase due to age-related changes in thyroid function, as well as modifications in the regulation of calcium metabolism leading to elevated levels of PTH. Norepinephrine is involved in the body’s response to stress, and its increase can be part of the body's adaptive response with aging.

Testosterone and estrone (an estrogen produced in larger quantities post-menopause) exemplify how sex hormones also alter with age, illustrating hormonal adaptations that occur during different life stages.

Other options listed involve hormones that may not show a significant or consistent increase with age, making them less relevant in the context of hormones directly affected by aging.
