    Your Endocrine System

    You probably don’t think about your endocrine system much — until something goes wrong. But it plays a role in nearly every function in your body.

    Your endocrine system is made up of a number of glands — thyroid, pituitary, adrenal and more — and the hormones they produce. Those hormones act as chemical messengers, traveling throughout your body and triggering various functions. Some regulate growth and sexual development, while others control body temperature, thirst and hunger. Still others influence blood sugar levels, mood and sexual response. There’s not much that hormones don’t do.

    Numerous symptoms, such as weight loss, muscle weakness, headache and many more, may point to endocrine system disorders. Common conditions we treat include:

    • Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
    • Thyroid dysfunction, including thyroid nodules, goiter and cancer.
    • Parathyroid and calcium disorders.
    • Adrenal and pituitary disorders.
    • Hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), such as Graves' disease.
    • Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid).
    • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
    • Osteoporosis.
    • Paget’s disease of bone.
    • Male and female sexual dysfunction.

    Once your primary care doctor diagnoses you, your endocrinologist works with you to develop a treatment plan, manage your condition and restore you to better health.

    Diabetes, Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome Research

    Sutter Health Diabetes, Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome Research
    Diabetes is one of the leading causes of illness and death in the U.S. today, but it was uncommon just 60 years ago. Research is critical to slow down this growing health problem and treat the 29 million Americans who have it. Diabetes occurs when the body doesn’t make or use the hormone insulin properly. Cells don’t get the energy they need, and sugar from food – called glucose – builds up in the blood. Obesity is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes and is epidemic in this country.
