In Episode Two of Clinical Misfits, Dr. Mary describes each of the major endocrine (hormone) systems of the body and the myriad ways that dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system can affect their function, and vice versa.
She explains how the communications among a person's thoughts, senses, emotions and experiences affect and are affected by a person's hormonal balance at any time. When the autonomic system is dysregulated, the endocrine systems cannot function normally. This can result in all the signs and symptom of hormone gland disease, when the glands themselves might be completely healthy.
The result is true illness that cannot be identified using standard medical testing.
