Overview

Endocrinology is an area of medical science that focuses on the study and treatment of disorders related to the endocrine system. The endocrine system consists of glands that produce hormones, which are essential for regulating various bodily functions. There can be several causes of endocrine disorders. They can arise from hormone-producing glands, such as the thyroid, adrenal glands, pituitary gland, pancreas, or the ovaries and testes. The symptoms of endocrine disorders vary depending on the specific gland and hormones involved. A few of the common symptoms include fatigue, weight changes, mood swings, abnormal growth patterns, changes in sexual function, excessive thirst or urination, and changes in appetite. Diagnosing endocrine disorders involves a thorough review of medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests. Imaging techniques such as ultrasounds, CT scans, or MRIs may also be used to visualize the affected glands or detect tumors. This book is a compilation of case studies that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of endocrinology. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by it.
