Why is it that endocrine organs need to have a rich vascular and lymphatic drainage?

Endocrine glands secrete hormones which are used in various parts of the body, not just at the location of the endocrine glands, so the hormones have to be transported efficiently. Without a rich vascular and lymphatic drainage, there would be an excessive concentration of hormones accumulating in the vicinity of the endocrine glands.

What is lymphatic drainage used for?
The lymphatic system is closely associated with the cardiovascular system. The primary organs of the lymphatic system are the bone marrow and thymus gland, and the secondary lymphatic organs include the lymph nodes and spleen. These organs work together to transport excess tissue (interstitial) fluid back to the blood stream, transport dietary fat, and help defend the body against disease causing agents. I would consider it more of the recycling system than a drainage system. The urinary system fits that description better since you are getting rid of wastes instead of recycling fluids.
