These disorders can lead to hormonal imbalances and impact growth, metabolism, and reproductive functions.Pancreatic Gland DisordersPancreatic Gland Disorders - Pancreatic gland disorders disrupt the production of hormones, including insulin, affecting metabolism and digestion. These disorders can lead to conditions such as diabetes mellitus and digestive enzyme insufficiency.Parathyroid Gland DisordersParathyroid Gland Disorders - Parathyroid gland disorders affect the regulation of calcium levels in the body, influencing bone health, blood calcium levels, and nerve and muscle function. These disorders can lead to osteoporosis, fractures, hypercalcemia, kidney failure, and hypocalcemia with associated symptoms such as tetany and muscle spasms.sub_class_ofparent_class_ofsee_alsois_defined_byselfsub_class_ofparent_class_ofsee_alsois_defined_by
