Introduction
Hormones are mediators of signals that control growth, reproduction and reactions to stress and the environment.
The major endocrine organs that secrete hormones are as follows: pituitary gland, thyroid, parathyroid, pancreas, adrenal gland, ovary and the testis.
Endocrine disorders are displayed when there is altered control (deficiency or overproduction) of the secretion of hormones.
The Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism provides care for patients with hormonal disorders including diabetes, obesity, thyroid disorders, metabolic bone diseases including osteoporosis, pituitary gland disorders, lipid disorders, infertility and secondary hypertension.
One of the fields that utilizes the most up-to-date medical information and molecular biological knowledge is endocrinology and metabolism. This field not only focuses on the systematic management and prevention of chronic metabolic diseases but also advances in the development and research of new treatment methods
