The excretory system works with the endocrine system to help maintain homeostasis. Chemical messengers called hormones signal the kidneys to filter more or less water or salt, depending on the levels of water and salt in the body. For example, when you sweat a lot the water content of your blood can drop.
Q. How do the endocrine and excretory system work together?
Excretory system: A low level of water in the blood triggers retention of water by the kidneys. The kidneys produce more concentrated urine, so less water is lost from the body. Endocrine system: A high concentration of sugar in the blood triggers secretion of insulin by an endocrine gland called the pancreas.

Q. What is the relationship between the endocrine system and the urinary system?
Control of the Urinary System The formation of urine must be closely regulated to maintain body-wide homeostasis. Several endocrine hormones help control this function of the urinary system, including antidiuretic hormone, parathyroid hormone, and aldosterone.
Q. How is the endocrine system connected to other systems?
The endocrine system acts as a communication tool within the human body, working in tandem with the nervous system to communicate with the body’s other internal systems. Both the nervous and endocrine systems send messages everywhere inside the human body.

Normal testosterone levels in men range from about 300 to 1,000 nanograms per deciliter of blood. Going from one number within the normal zone to another one may not pack much of a punch. “You don’t see the big improvement once men are within the normal range,” said Dr.
