Hormonal disorders refer to conditions where there is an imbalance in the production or functioning of hormones in the body. Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate a multitude of physiological processes including growth, metabolism, reproduction, and mood. Imbalances can result from overproduction, underproduction, or improper functioning of these hormones.

These disorders can affect various aspects of health and well-being, often requiring targeted medical intervention to manage symptoms and restore balance. Common hormonal disorders include diabetes, thyroid disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and adrenal insufficiency, among others.
