Endocrinologist Frequently Asked Questions

What is an endocrinologist?

Endocrinologists are specialists who diagnose and treat conditions that often result from hormonal imbalances produced by your endocrine system. The endocrine system is responsible for controlling several of your body’s important functions, including:

Metabolism
Mood
Growth
Reproduction

Your endocrine system is also made of several hormone-producing glands:

Adrenal glands — regulate your metabolism, immune system, stress, and more
Pituitary glands — regulate growth, reproduction, and blood pressure
Hypothalamus — balances appetite, body temperature, and weight
Thyroid — tells the body’s cells how much energy to use and regulates metabolism
Pineal Gland — produces melatonin, helping with sleep
