endocrine disorder

Glandular system malfunction

An endocrine disorder is a condition affecting the glands that produce hormones—thyroid, pituitary, adrenal, pancreas, and others.

These disorders involve too much or too little hormone production, or the body's inability to respond properly to hormones.

Diabetes, hypothyroidism, and Cushing's syndrome are common examples.
