What is Endocrinology?
Endocrinology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the endocrine system, which is a network of glands that produce and release hormones. These hormones regulate many of the body’s functions, including metabolism, growth, and reproduction. The endocrine system includes glands such as the thyroid, pancreas, adrenal glands, and pituitary gland.
What Do Endocrinologists Do?
Endocrinologists are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing and treating disorders of the endocrine system. They deal with a wide range of conditions, including:
- Diabetes mellitus (Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes)
- Thyroid disorders (such as hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism)
- Metabolic disorders
- Osteoporosis and other bone disorders
- Hormonal imbalances
- Adrenal gland disorders
- Reproductive gland disorders
- Pituitary gland disorders
