Under secretion refers to a condition where a gland or organ in the body produces and releases too little of a specific hormone or substance. This can lead to various health problems due to the reduced levels of the essential substance in the body. Treatment options usually involve addressing the underlying cause and, in some cases, supplementing the deficient hormone or substance.
