What are the endocrine organs?

People always know very little about the structure of the body. We always wait until we become sick or unwell before we start to understand. Everyone knows that every function of the body has a specific function. If this part cannot function normally, some reactions will be shown in the body. Nowadays, the probability of endocrine disorders is getting higher and higher, so it is necessary to understand the endocrine organs. So, what about endocrine organs?

Endocrine glands are glands without secretory ducts. The substances they secrete (called hormones) enter the surrounding blood vessels and lymphatic vessels directly, and the blood and lymph are used to transport the hormones throughout the body. There are many endocrine glands scattered throughout the human body. Some endocrine glands form a single organ, such as the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, thymus gland, pineal gland, and adrenal gland. Other endocrine glands are found in other organs, such as the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas, the corpus luteum in the ovary, and the interstitial cells in the testicles. The hormones secreted by endocrine glands play a very complex and very important regulatory role in the growth, development, functional activities and metabolism of various organs in the body.

1. The concept of endocrine Endocrine is a special secretion mode of the human body. Endocrine tissues and cells secrete trace amounts of substances (hormones) with special physiological effects directly into the blood or body fluids, exerting their physiological regulatory effects on distant or local hormone-sensitive organs or tissues. Endocrinology is the biological science that studies hormones and their substances, and clinical endocrinology is the clinical medicine that studies the etiology, pathology, diagnosis and treatment of endocrine diseases. (II) Endocrine system, organs and tissues Endocrine system: The endocrine system is a fluid regulation system (from the hypothalamus to the pituitary gland to the target organ) composed of the human endocrine glands, endocrine tissues and hormone-secreting cells. It regulates the growth, development, reproduction, aging, organ function and metabolic process of the human body, and connects and coordinates the functions of human cells, tissues and organs with the nervous system and immune system to maintain the stability of the human internal environment, adapt to changes in the external environment, and ensure the normal progress of life activities.

Endocrine organs are a part of the human body that have a great impact on health. In life, many people have difficulty in work and life due to endocrine disorders. In fact, the malfunction of endocrine organs is mostly related to living habits and diet. Therefore, in order to avoid endocrine organ dysfunction, it is necessary to develop good living habits and eat a light and nutritious diet.
