A chronic condition that affects the way the body processes blood sugar (glucose).
Symptoms: excessive thirst, excessive urination, hunger, fatigue, and blurred vision. 
Some symptoms do not occur. 
The Pancreas makes more insulin to try to get glucose into the cells but it can't keep up so it shut downs which makes it non-existing.
Type 2 Diabetes affects the pancreas and the hormone that is affected by type 2 is the Glucagon. 
In order to avoid complications you have to manage your diabetes by eating well and taking your medications.

The endocrine gland effected by Menopause would be the Pituitary gland. 

The pituitary gland releases two hormones responsible for a woman's menstrul cycle. These hormones are luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). These also help with reproductive hormones which during Menopause there is a decrease in the release of these hormones. 

There is a Hyposecreation of hormones when dealing with menopause.

The treatment of refractory ascites by adrenalectomy and by the administration of spirolactones.

Primary aldosteronism (al-DOS-tuh-ro-niz-um) is a type of hormonal disorder that leads to high blood pressure. Your adrenal glands produce a number of essential hormones. One of these is aldosterone, which balances sodium and potassium in your blood

Diagnosis and treatment of primary aldosteronism are important because people with this form of high blood pressure have a higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Also, the high blood pressure associated with primary aldosteronism may be curable.
