middle brain that tells the pituitary gland when to release hormones.
· Ovaries: The female reproductive
organs that release eggs and produce sex hormones.

the pancreas control the release of the hormones insulin and glucagon.

neck that play a role in bone development.
· Pineal gland: A gland found near the
center of the brain that may be linked to sleep patterns.

Types of Endocrine
Disorders
There are
many different types of endocrine disorders.
Adrenal insufficiency. The adrenal gland releases
cortison, aldosterone. In adrenal sufficiency the amount of hormone decreses.
Symptoms include fatigue, stomachupset, dehydration, and skin changes.
Addison’s disease is a type of adrenal insufficiency.
Cushing’s disease. Overproduction of a pituitary gland
hormone leads to an overactive adrenal gland. A similar condition called
Cushing’s syndromemay occur in people, particularly children, who take high
doses of corticosteroid medications.
Gigantism (acromegaly) If the pituitary gland produces too
much growth hormone, a child’s bones and body parts may grow abnormally fast.
If growth hormone levels are too low, a child can stop growing in height.
Hyperthyroidism. The thyroid gland produces too much
thyroid hormone, leading to weight loss, fast heart rate, sweating, and
nervousness. The most common cause for an overactive thyroid is an autoimmune
disorder called Grave’s disease.
Hypothyroidism. The thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone, leading to fatigue, constipation, dry skin, and depression. The underactive gland can cause slowed development in children. Some types of hypothyroidism are
present
at birth.Hypopituitarism. The pituitary gland releases little or no
hormones. It may be caused by a number of different diseases. Women with this
condition may stop getting their periods.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Overproduction of androgens
interfere with the development of eggs and their release from the female
ovaries. PCOS is a leading cause of infertility.
Precocious puberty. Abnormally early puberty that occurs
when glands tell the body to release sex hormones too soon in life.
