Frequently Asked Questions

Endocrinology is a field of medicine that studies conditions related to your hormones and their functions.

An endocrinologist is a healthcare provider who specializes in endocrinology. An endocrinologist can diagnose endocrine conditions, develop treatment and management plans for hormone-related diseases and conditions, and prescribe medications to treat them.

Hormone related diseases such as:

  • Diabetes mellitus (type 1 and type 2)
  • Thyroid disorders: hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism
  • Goiter.
  • Polycystic ovarian disease
  • Addison’s disease
  • Cushing’s syndrome
  • Gigantism.
  • Dwarfism.
  • Infertility
  • Growth issues
  • Metabolic disorders
  • Osteoporosis
  • Endocrine gland cancers
  • Disorders in the hormone-producing adrenal gland and pituitary glands.

  • Mood swings.
  • Fatigue
  • Weakness
  • Unintended weight fluctuations.
  • Changes in blood glucose levels or cholesterol levels.

At your first appointment, your endocrinologist will ask about your symptoms, medications, health habits, and family history of hormone-related problems. Your medical records will be reviewed, and your referring doctor will be consulted.

Endocrine conditions can be due to three main causes:

  • Underproduction of a certain hormone
  • Overproduction of a certain hormone
  • A malfunction in the production line of a hormone or in its ability to function correctly.

A consultation with an endocrinologist would cost around Rs. 600–2000 in India and USD 150–500 abroad.

These tests and tools are used to diagnose and evaluate endocrine disorders:

  • CT scan.
  • Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)
  • Nuclear medicine
  • Parathyroid ultrasound
  • Post-thyroidectomy ultrasound
  • Thyroglobulin stimulation studies
  • Thyroid ultrasound
  • Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration

Some of these stressful responses can lead to endocrine disorders like Graves' disease, gonadal dysfunction, psycho-sexual dwarfism, and obesity. Stress can also change the clinical course of many pre-existing endocrine disorders, such as precipitating an adrenal crisis or a thyroid storm.

Adult hypopituitarism, hypothyroidism, osteoporosis, diabetes mellitus, adrenal insufficiency, various forms of hypogonadism, and endocrine malignancies are all more frequent in old age.
