ENDOCRINOLOGIST

Endocrinology is specialty branch in the field of medicine and physiology that focuses on the study of thee endocrine glands and the hormones associated to it. An endocrine system is consisted of a number of glands whose function is to secrete hormones and other hormonal secretions into the blood directly. An endocrinologist is a medical practitioner who specializes in the field of endocrinology. The endocrinologists are trained medical practitioners who treat patients who suffer from the infections and the diseases related to the glands that are present on the body. 

Hormones are released into a person’s body through the glands that are present. Sometimes, a person suffers from hormonal imbalances because of the problems in the glands especially those associated with the endocrine glands. When such imbalances arise, the person can consult an endocrinologist. The endocrinologist treats the patient so that the person’s imbalance in the hormones can return to normal. Common diseases are: “endocrine gland hypo secretion”, “endocrine gland hyper secretion” and “tumors of endocrine glands”.

ENDOCRINE GLAND HYPOSECRETION: The endocrine gland hyposecretion takes place in the body when the glands present lack the ability to produce enough amount hormones and there is a lack of hormonal secretion

ENDOCRINE GLAND HYPERSECRETION: The endocrine gland hyper secretion takes place when the glands become extremely over reactive and there is a production of the hormonal secretion in excess. By Pujha
