The human body contains eight major endocrine glands, in addition to other organs and tissues such as the digestive system, kidneys, and others. All of these secrete hormones.
Hormones regulate the entire body's environment in terms of metabolism and weight, energy production and regulation, weight and insulin resistance, growth and puberty, reproduction, and even affect mental and emotional stability. Hormones act on receptors distributed throughout all body tissues. They are called endocrine glands because they secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream without ducts.
Endocrine disorders are common, including type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, morbid obesity, dyslipidemia, thyroid and parathyroid gland dysfunction, adrenal and pituitary gland disorders, infertility, stunted growth, osteoporosis, and others. The Specialty Hospital/Endocrinology Department is fully equipped to diagnose these diseases, including laboratories, all types of radiology, nuclear medicine imaging, hormone stimulation tests, and chromosome analysis. The hospital boasts highly qualified medical, nursing, laboratory, and radiology staff, all working according to international standards.
Necessary treatments are available for all cases, and surgical expertise is provided when required
