Who are Endocrinologists?
Endocrinologists are doctors who specialize in glands and the hormones they make. Hormones maintain the whole function of the body; if imbalanced they can cause you much trouble and contribute to many disorders.
Hormones affect nearly every process in your body including:
- Metabolism
- Growth and development
- Emotions and mood
- Fertility and sexual function
- Sleep
- Blood pressure
Sometimes glands produce too much or not enough of a hormone. This imbalance can cause many serious health problems. Illnesses, stress and certain medications can cause hormonal imbalance in your body. An Endocrinologist can help to diagnose your problem and treat it to restore your hormonal balance.
Your physician can recommend you to see an Endocrinologist for many reasons including diabetes, thyroid disorder, hirsutism, infertility and menopause.
