NON-INVASIVE GLAND AND HORMONE REPAIR

Endocrinology is a branch of biology and medicine dealing with the endocrine system, its diseases, and its specific secretions known as hormones.

Endocrinology is the field of hormone-related diseases. An endocrinologist can diagnose and treat hormone problems and the complications that arise from them. Hormones regulate metabolism, respiration, growth, reproduction, sensory perception, and movement. Hormone imbalances are the underlying reason for a wide range of medical conditions. Endocrinology focuses both on the hormones and the many glands and tissues that produce them. Humans have over 50 different hormones. They can exist in very small amounts and still have a significant impact on bodily function and development.

What is the endocrine system?

The human endocrine system consists of a number of glands, which release hormones to control many different functions. When the hormones leave the glands, they enter the bloodstream and are transported to organs and tissues in every part of the body.

Diseases

• A hormone imbalance can result from genetic or environmental factors.
• Some infants are born with hormonal problems that can lead to a range of health issues, such as low growth. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals, such as pesticides, lead, and phthalates, which are used in plastic food containers, can sometimes lead to hormonal problems.

There are three broad groups of endocrine disorders :

• A gland does not produce enough of its hormones. This is known as endocrine gland hypo secretion.
• A gland produces too much of its hormones, also referred to as hypersecretion.
• Tumours develop in the endocrine glands. They may be malignant, or cancerous, but they may also be benign, or non-cancerous.
