Endocrinologists (اینڈو کرینولوجسٹ) are doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of hormone-related issues. They not only have to cater to the underlying issue causing the disruption in hormone production but also manage the resultant complications as well.
Since hormones control major processes in the body, even slight deregulation in their production has grave implications for health. Hence, endocrinologists play an important role in improving the well-being of such patients.
Endocrinologists are physicians and thus use conservative and non-invasive treatment options.
Most people end up visiting an endocrinologist at the referral of their primary care physicians.
People suffering from already diagnosed problems also need to periodically visit their endocrinologist to stay on top of their disease. Moreover, those suffering from adrenal disorders and certain cancers also need the help of an endocrinologist.
Patients having problems controlling diabetes also need to see a hormone specialist (ماہرہارمون), as uncontrolled diabetes affects the nerves, eyes, kidneys and thus is a dangerous state to be in.
Similarly, one should visit an endocrinologist if they have thyroid disorder, in which either the gland is under or over producing the hormone. Follow-up care is also dispensed by these specialist doctors when there are changes within the body, as is the case with certain diseases and conditions like pregnancy. The doctor in such cases might need to review your treatment.
Although osteoporosis is generally related to aging, it may also be caused by hormonal changes in the body, in which case, the disease is overseen by an endocrinologist.
Similarly, women suffering from PCOS (پی سی اوز) might also need to visit an endocrinologist, as it too steps from hormonal issues. In men, low levels of testosterone are a cause for serious concern. Leading to impaired sexual health, infertility etc., this condition needs to be remedied by hormone-specialist doctors.
Cancer can also strike any of the endocrine glands, in which case, an endocrinologist has to manage the disease and the hormonal changes that it brings.
Endocrinologists are involved in the disease diagnosis, for which they have to run several tests alongside conducting a physical exam like checking heart rate etc.
