The spectrum of endocrine disorders includes diabetes and its complications; thyroid, pituitary and adrenal disease; gonadal disorders and infertility; neuroendocrine conditions; benign and malignant glandular tumours; disorders of growth; genetic and congenital glandular dysfunction; lipid and nutritional abnormalities; menopausal disorders; and osteoporosis and metabolic bone disease.
