Endocrinology is the medical specialty that deals with the endocrine system. This is the system that produces hormones. Endocrinologists are doctors who diagnose diseases related to the glands.

A pediatric endocrinologist treats children and adolescents who have problems related to hormones or glands, including diabetes and growth disorders.

The endocrine system consists of a series of hormonal organs and glands that produce and secrete hormones, which the body uses for a variety of functions. Hormones regulate various bodily functions, including breathing, metabolism, reproduction, movement, sexual development, and growth.
Hormones are produced by specific organs and glands and are transported via the bloodstream to various tissues throughout the body. They send signals to the tissues to tell them what to do. When the glands do not produce the correct amount of hormones, diseases can develop that may affect many aspects of life.
