The endocrine system is a collection of glands that secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream.

Two suffixes I’m going to report on of the endocrine system is dipsia and uria.

DIPSIAPolydipsia: Many (excessive) thirst

Causes of Polydipsia

URIAPolyuria: Condition of (too) much urine.Glycosuria: Sugar in the urine.The most common cause of polyuria in both adults and children is uncontrolled diabetes melltius, causing an osmotic diuresis. Glycosuria can be caused by diabetes, hyperthyroidism, liver problems, kidney problems, and pregnancy.
