External, or exocrine, secretion is distinguished from internal, or endocrine, secretion. In external secretion the products elaborated by a gland are released into the external environment; the secretion first enters the glandular duct, from which it is discharged onto the surface of the body or into hollow organs.
Endocrine glands are also called ductless glands, because they secrete hormones directly into the bloodstream. In contrast, exocrine glands release their secretions through ducts (for example, the sweat glands produce fluid that flows to the skin's surface through tiny tubelike sweat ducts).
