What is endocrinology?
Endocrinology is the study of an endocrine system concerning the glands of the body - organs that produce hormones - and hormones that produce how they work and their disorders. Endocrinology is also a medical industry that specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of endocrine disorders. Doctors specializing in endocrinology are called endocrinologists.
Endocrinology is also the name of the magazine published by the Endocrine Society. Articles in the magazine are on topics such as growth factors, reproductions, neuroendocrinology, steroids, thyroid and physiology. The magazine is published monthly. Other magazines of the company are endocrine reports, endocrine reviews, Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, and molecular endocrinology .
There are several specialties in the medical field of endocrinology. Reproductive endocrinologists can primarily focus on fertility and menstrual function problems. Child Endocrinologists specialize in endoCrine disorders because children affect, while adult endocrinologists focus on those disorders outside the reproductive area that affect adults. The hormones produced by the endocrine system are essential in many body activities. These activities include reproduction, metabolism, growth and development.

Examples of conditions for which endocrinologists are often consulted are Addison's disease, amenorea, diabetes mellitus, endocrine gland cancer, gender dysphoria, growth disorders, hermaphroditism, hyperpathyroidism, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension, hypertension Hypertension, Hypertensierthyroidism, Hypoglycaemia, Hypopituitarism, Hypothyroidism, Infelnibility, Lipid Disorders such as High Cholesterol, Menopause Symptoms, Metabolic DisorderChy, osteoporosis and intersections. Some of these conditions may not be directly caused by the problems of the endocrine system, but endocrinology may still be involved in treatment.
The diagnosis of endocrine disorders often involves testing. The response and function of the gland can be detected by stimulation or inhibition and checking the results of blood analysis. In addition, normal changes in growth and development from differences that signal a basic failure should be distinguished.
Treatment of endocrine systemic problems may include a number of different strategies. In some cases, hormones may be blocked or replaced. These approaches are used when the endocrine gland is hyperactive and hypoactive, creating too much or too small hormone. Changes in the diet can be another treatment such as May prescribed medicines and exercises.
