The endocrine system comprises several key glands, including the pancreas, thyroid, parathyroid, pineal, hypothalamus, adrenal, and pituitary glands, as well as the ovaries and testes. It also involves various organs that interact with, modify, or process hormones.

In Pakistan, there is a significant prevalence of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, osteoporosis, and metabolic conditions, particularly among the elderly. Contributing factors like poor diet, stress, smoking, pollution, and general health neglect can lead to endocrine disorders, causing a range of complications including worsening diabetes.

Role of the Endocrine System

The endocrine system, alongside the brain and nervous system, manages the flow of information in the body through hormones. These chemical messengers regulate essential processes, including water intake, sleep, eating, and heart rate. The system influences all organs related to anatomical functions, particularly the brain, pituitary gland, thyroid, adrenal glands, pancreas, and reproductive organs, as well as the metabolic rate.
