Detailed Solution
Thyrocalcitonin (TCT) regulates blood calcium levels (A is correct), and FSH along with androgens regulates spermatogenesis in males (B is correct). Hypothyroidism (not hyperthyroidism) typically leads to goitre (C is incorrect as stated). Glucocorticoids are secreted from the Adrenal Cortex, not the Adrenal Medulla (D is incorrect). Parathyroid hormone is regulated by circulating levels of calcium ions, not sodium ions (E is incorrect). So A and B only.
