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.
The endocrine system is the collection of glands of an organism that secrete hormones directly into the circulatory system to be carried towards distant target organs. The phenomenon of biochemical processes' serving to regulate distant tissues by means of secretions directly into the circulatory system is called endocrine signaling. The major endocrine glands include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, and adrenal glands. The endocrine system is in contrast to the exocrine system, which secretes its hormones to the outside of the body using ducts.
