An Endo-What?

Do you suffer from chronic stress? Do you experience constant fatigue? Did you suddenly gain a couple of pounds?

If so, a visit with an endocrinologist might be what you need. These doctors specialize in hormones and related diseases, which can wreak havoc on your body in different ways.

Our hormones regulate so many systems within our body, and even the slightest change within our internal or external environment can shift our hormonal balance.

Your primary care physician will most likely check your thyroid levels during your routine visit, but there are other tests that can be done to provide a more detailed assessment of all your hormones. With all the problems that a hormone imbalance can create, it can be difficult to identify.

When it comes to health, we can’t limit ourselves to just our routine visits. Pay attention to your body and discuss any concerning changes with your primary care physician. If you’re still not feeling like yourself, a visit with a specialist could provide the insight and relief you’re looking for. Typically, your physician will refer you to the most appropriate specialist, which takes out some of the guesswork. However, you may be able to make an appointment on your own. No matter what, it’s important to be persistent and advocate for yourself, your needs, and your health.
