In a single person there are seven major endocrine glands: Pineal gland (brain), pituitary gland (brain), pancreas (abdomen), thyroid gland (throat), thymus (chest), adrenal gland (abdomen), ovary in females (abdomen), and testis in males (groin). The exocrine glands are sweat glands, mammary glands, salivary glands, and the liver.

∙ 11y agoBased on the question's categorization, I am going to assume that you are asking specifically for the glands of the endocrine system:
The pineal and pituitary glans are in the brain, the thyroid gland is in the throat, the adrenal gland and pancreas are in the torso and the gonads are in the testes for the male or the ovaries for the female.
However, if you are asking about glands in general, they are found throughout the body.
