Endocrine system in 3D

The endocrine system is made up of glands that release hormones into the bloodstream to regulate the body's functions.

The hypothalamus and pituitary coordinate most other glands. The thyroid controls metabolism, the adrenal glands regulate the stress response and salt balance, the pancreas controls blood sugar and the gonads produce sex hormones.
