The endocrine system refers to network of glands within our body.
This is maybe boring but nice review:)
These glands produce hormones, essential chemicals that bodily functions such as growth and metabolism relies on.
Endocrine diseases occur when glands produce insufficient amount of hormones.
The endocrine system plays a major role in controlling the following:
– Growth and development (for most women there are 3 major hormonal transitions – start of menstrual cycle; pregnancy; and menopause)
– Homeostasis (the internal balance of body systems)
– Metabolism (body energy management)
– Reproduction (huge hormonal surge for women)
– Response to stimuli (dealing with stress and injuries)
The glands of the endocrine system are:
Hypothalamus
Pineal Gland – third eye
Pituitary Gland
Thyroid
Parathyroid
Thymus
Adrenal
Pancreas
Ovaries/Testes
