Endocrine System

Published

Any good web sites out there to help study the Endocrine System? Learning the hormones and their target cells is not so bad, but once you get into the functions/ actions, I start to get a little confused!

Any help is appreciated.

I don't know of any websites that will help, but what I did to keep everything in order and organized was to make a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet I made had five columns that included: hormone name, abbreviation, where it was released from, its target, and then the function of the hormone. I also grouped "like" hormones together, such as GHRH, GH, and GHIH. I don't know if this makes any sense, but if it does I hope it helps, if not I will try to explain what I did better. Good Luck!

I agree with the spreadsheet idea! I did the same type of layout and it really helped me remember all of the hormones.
