Disorder Endocrine Gland Symptoms Excess secretion of cortisol due to elevated levels of ACTH or adrenal gland tumor Causes high blood pressure, high blood sugar, muscle weakness and accumulation of fluid in the tissues Excess growth hormone production during adulthood causing excessive thickening of bone tissue Leads to abnormal growth of the head, hands and feet and spinal deformities Insufficient insulin production causes excess glucose in the blood and urine Excretion of large volumes of urine, extreme thirst, low energy If left untreated it can lead to blindness, kidney failure, nerve damage and limb amputation due to dying tissue Lack of iodine causes overstimulation of the thyroid causing continuous growth The thyroid enlarges creating a large swelling of the neck area Insufficient growth hormone production resulting in abnormally short stature Puberty may be delayed or not occur An excess of growth hormone prior to puberty resulting in abnormal growth of the long bones Insufficient secretion of cortisol and Aldosterone Causes low blood pressure, low blood sugar, weight loss, and muscle weakness
