3. Endocrine gland disorders in immunodeficiency diseases

Endocrine gland disorders in immunodeficiency diseases occur when the immune system is weakened, affecting glands that produce hormones. This may lead to conditions like adrenal insufficiency, where the adrenal glands don’t produce enough hormones, or thyroid disorders, which can disrupt metabolism. Individuals with immunodeficiency might experience hormonal imbalances, resulting in symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, or growth issues. Understanding these connections helps in managing both the immune system and overall health, highlighting the importance of monitoring endocrine function in patients with immunodeficiency disorders.
