An endocrinologist is a medical specialist who treats people with a range of conditions that are caused by problems with hormones, such as diabetes, menopause, and thyroid problems.
Hormones are part of the endocrine system, a series of glands that produce and secrete hormones that control many other bodily functions. The endocrine system includes:
the pituitary gland
the thyroid gland
the parathyroid gland
the adrenal glands
the pancreas
ovaries and testes
