Endocrine system anatomy and physiology | Endocrine system lecture  notes on youtube video

This endocrine system lecture explains the endocrine system anatomy and physiology and it also states about the structural anatomy of the endocrine system consist of ductless glands that secrete hormones.

This lecture explains about the chemical messengers called hormones secreted from the endocrine glands. Endocrine system anatomy and physiology lecture states the function of endocrine system and physiology of endocrine system by means of hormones biochemistry that regulates the body growth and metabolism.

This lecture also states the structure and function of major glands of the endocrine system like hypothalamus, pituitary, thyroid, parathyroids, adrenals, pineal body, and the reproductive organs (ovaries and testes) and pancreas.
