I&#39;m a mother of twins. If one of the children get strep I&#39;m always concerned how long it can live on enviromental surfaces. I know that once on antibiotics for 24 to 48 hrs they are no longer contagious. But how long does it live on surfaces. Hard to keep up with babies.
Endocrinology is a complex study of the various hormones and their actions and disorders in the body. Glands are organs that make hormones. These are substances that help to control activities in the body and have several effects on the metabolism, reproduction, food absorption and utilization, growth and development etc.
An endocrinologist is a doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions involving the endocrine glands, which produce secretions, such as hormones, that are released into the bloodstream. Endocrinologists often treat conditions that involve multiple systems within the body.
