Endocrinology
What is endocrinology?
Endocrinology is a medical specialty that studies and treats medical conditions related to the endocrine system.
The endocrine system is a network of hormone-producing glands. These glands function as a system to communicate with each other so as to coordinate and control many bodily activities and functions. These include:
- Growth
- Fertility
- Metabolism and weight
- Blood sugar control
- Managing stress
- Bone
When parts of the endocrine system do not work, it can lead to health problems.
Endocrinologists specialise in diagnosing and treating health conditions related to endocrine glands and hormones.
