Hormonal and metabolic complaints
Related specialties
The hormone system affects many organs, so symptoms often feel non-specific yet still need targeted endocrine assessment.
Hormonal complaints may include
- fatigue
- weight change
- hot flushes
- cycle disturbance
- hair loss
- palpitations
- symptoms pointing to the thyroid
Endocrine assessment
In endocrinology we decide next steps from history, examination and laboratory results. Difficulty losing weight, PCOS, osteoporosis, thyroid and adrenal disorders, and female or male hormone-axis abnormalities may all be addressed, depending on the presentation.
