At the end of this unit, the student will be able to master the normal physiology of the endocrine glands and functions related to reproduction. Physiopathological situations are presented during the course and form an integral part of the subject. Once the subject has been acquired, the student must be able to reason about situations that could be found in a healthy person or in a patient.
The systems covered are the major functions of the endocrine glands: the hypothalamus-pituitary system, thyroid function, adrenal function, the functions of the endocrine pancreas and adipose tissue, phospho-calcium regulation and the functions of the reproductive organs: gonads and uterine mucosa.
The material covered in the course will be presented in the first lesson.
Practical work on glycaemic control is organised to illustrate important pathophysiological points.
