Specializes in the body's endocrine system meaning glands which secrete hormones inside the body. Such organs(glands) are the thyroid gland(found anterior of the neck,larynx),pituitary gland, the pancreas, the gonads, the and the adrenal glands
An endocrinologist normally diagnoses disorders concerning these organs or the hormones they secrete

endocrine function usually has something to do with the kidneys ... so I would guess that its to do with those, or maybe someone who studies wee

An endocrinologist is a specially trained doctor. Endocrinologists diagnose diseases that affect your glands. They know how to treat conditions that are often complex and involve many systems within your body. Your primary care doctor refers you to an endocrinologist when you have a problem with your endocrine system.


Endocrinologists are trained to diagnose and treat hormone problems by helping to restore the normal balance of hormones in your system. They take care of many conditions including:

diabetes
thyroid diseases
metabolic disorders
over or under production of hormones
menopause
osteoporosis
hypertension
cholesterol (lipid) disorders
infertility
lack of growth (short stature)
cancers of the endocrine glands
Endocrinologists also conduct basic research to learn the way glands work, and clinical research to learn the best methods to treat patients. Through research, endocrinologists develop new drugs and treatments for hormone problems.
