Diabetes-a sugar metabolism disorder. Not enough or no insulin= high blood sugar and lots of organ damage. Thyroid disorders (Hashimoto's is one)- too much thyroid, and too little thyroid -this affects speed of metabolism and a lot of other things. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome- I believe this tends to be caused by too much testosterone or other androgens. Can make a woman infertile. Look up each of the hormone producing organs they will all have disorders associated with them, probably more that one.

The endocrine glands are as follows:-
1. Pineal gland
2. Pituitary gland-Diseases-Hyperpituitarism [Gigantism, Acromegaly, Cushing's disease, Hyperprolactinemia, Nelson's syndrome, Precocious puberty] Hypopituitarism [Sheehan's syndrome/Simond's disease, Pituitary dwarfism, Adiposogenital dystrophy] Posterior pituitary [Diabetes insipidus, Hypernatremia, Obesity]
3. Thyroid gland-Diseases-Hyperthyroidism [Graves disease], Hypothyroidism, Parathyroids [Tetany, Hypoparathyroidism, Hyperparathyroidism, ]
4. Thymus
5. Adrenal gland-Diseases [Acute adrenocortical insufficiency, Addision's disease, Cushing's syndrome, Adrenogenital syndrome (Congenital adrenal hyperplasia), Pheocromocytoma]
6. Pancreas-Diseases [Diabetes mellitus, Hypoglycemia, Glycosuria].
7. Ovary
8. Testis

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.
And get this - it has nothing to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past. It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.

Making dietary changes is your first line of defense in treating hypothyroidism. Learn here https://tr.im/v3fh3
Many people with hypothyroidism experience crippling fatigue and brain fog, which prompts reaching for non-nutritional forms of energy like sugar and caffeine. I’ve dubbed these rascals the terrible twosome, as they can burn out your thyroid (and destabilize blood sugar).
1. Just say no to the dietary bungee cord. Greatly reduce or eliminate caffeine and sugar, including refined carbohydrates like flour, which the body treats like sugar. Make grain-based carbohydrates lesser of a focus, eating non-starchy vegetables to your heart’s content.
2. Up the protein. Protein transports thyroid hormone to all your tissues and enjoying it at each meal can help normalize thyroid function. Proteins include nuts and nut butters; quinoa; hormone- and antibiotic-free animal products (organic, grass-fed meats, eggs, and sustainably-farmed fish); and legumes.

Diabetes mellitus--inability to control blood sugar properly.
Hyperthyroidism--thyroid produces too much thyroid hormone
Hypothyroidism--thyroid produces too little thyroid hormone
Addison's disease--adrenal glands don't produce enough cortisol
Cushing's syndrome--adrenal glands produce too much cortisol
Hyperprolactinemia--pituitary produces too much prolactin
There are many others. You'd need a book to describe them all.
