Vital gland: This large gland controls how quickly the body uses energy, makes proteins, and controls how sensitive the body is to other hormones. It can under or over perform and the symptoms are quite diverse. Evaluation is essential. Palpating, lab tests, scans, biopsy may be needed to determine facts. Many dysfunctions are managed by supplements. Weight change & fatigue may be early signs.
