The endocrine system is somewhat like the regulator of the internal organs of the body. Surgical Specialists of Ocala are very familiar with this complicated network of glands that produce and release hormones that help control many important body functions, especially the body’s ability to change calories into energy that powers cells and organs.
The endocrine system influences how your heart beats, how your bones and tissues grow, even your ability to make a baby. It plays a vital role in whether or not you develop diabetes, thyroid disease, growth disorders, sexual dysfunction, and a host of other hormone-related disorders.
