This document summarizes major endocrine disorders including their causes, clinical manifestations, diagnostic tests, and management. It discusses disorders of the pituitary gland (hyperpituitarism, hypopituitarism), thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism), parathyroid glands (hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism), and adrenal glands (pheochromocytoma, Addison's disease). It provides details on the hormonal imbalances, symptoms, and treatment approaches for each condition.
Hyperthyroidism is a disorder that occurs when the thyroid gland makes more thyroid hormone than the body needs. Hyperthyroidism is sometimes called thyrotoxicosis, the technical term for too much thyroid hormone in the blood. Thyroid hormones circulate throughout the body in the bloodstream and act on virtually every tissue and cell in the body. Hyperthyroidism causes many of the body’s functions to speed up.

Thyroiditis is a general term that refers to “inflammation of the thyroid gland”. Thyroiditis includes a group of individual disorders causing thyroidal inflammation but presenting in different ways. For example, Hashimoto's thyroiditis is the most common cause of hypothyroidism in the United States.

Problems with the thyroid include a variety of disorders that can result in the gland producing too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) or too much (hyperthyroidism). Thyroid disorders can affect heart rate, mood, energy level, metabolism, bone health, pregnancy and many other functions.
