Endocrinology
Regulating hormone levels to create balance within the body
While all organ systems in the body secrete and respond to hormones, the endocrine system’s primary purpose is to produce hormones that help regulate other organs and cells. These hormones govern the body’s growth, metabolism, sexual development and function. If endocrine glands in the body secrete too many or too few hormones, disorders such as diabetes or thyroid issues arise which can affect the overall health of an individual.
Our endocrinologist works closely with each patient to determine the best medications and treatments to help the body’s systems function properly and work cohesively together. Oroville Hospital endocrinology services and treatments encompass:
