Understanding Endocrinology

Endocrinology is the medical specialty focused on the endocrine system, which controls hormones regulating vital bodily functions. The endocrine system includes glands such as the hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, pancreas, testes, and ovaries. These glands secrete hormones that circulate in the body, influencing various processes including growth, metabolism, blood pressure regulation, and reproduction.
