Anemia is a public health problem in almost all countries in the world, negatively affects human health,affects all sectors of the population and creates serious negative socio-economic consequences. The fact of anemiais the basis for stating a pathological condition that requires a nosological diagnosis with the identificationof the causes of anemia. The article presents a review of modern literature, covering the impact of endocrinepathology on the development of various types of anemia in humans. The importance of biologically activesubstances in normal erythropoiesis is described, the role of erythropoietin and the action of hormones of theendocrine glands on its formation are considered. Endocrine pathologies such as hypo- and hyperthyroidism,hypo- and hyperparathyroidism, diabetes mellitus, insufficiency of the pituitary, hypothalamus, sex glands,adrenal glands and features of the development of anemic conditions are discussed. An analysis of the literatureshowed that an increase or decrease in the function of individual endocrine glands leads to a disruption in theformation of erythropoietin, impaired absorption of iron, folic acid and vitamin B12 a nd, a s a r esult, i neffectiveerythropoiesis. Anemia negatively affects the course of the underlying disease, significantly worsening itsprognosis, and its treatment is more often effective only in conjunction with the adjustment of hormonal status.Despite significant progress in the study of the pathogenesis of anemia, the emergence of new scientific data onthe issues and mechanisms of regulation of erythropoiesis, classification options for anemia are still being discussed,the criteria for diagnosing a number of anemias and its combination with chronic diseases of endocrineand non-endocrine nature are being reviewed.
