The chemical product of an endocrine gland is called a hormone. These cause changes in the body. Different glands will produce different hormones for different purposes. For example, the adrenal glands will produce adrenaline (fight or flight hormone), the pituitary gland will produce testosterone and oestrogen (puberty hormones) and the hypothalamus in the brain will produce many hormones that regulate bodily functions such as breathing, heart-beat, body temperature etc.
The gland that has no duct and secretes its product directly into the blood is the endocrine gland. Examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland.
