What diseases does the male endocrinology department treat?

The key of endocrinology is to look at various diseases of the endocrine glands and various respiratory acidosis diseases, including the following:

1. For example, among metabolic diseases, hyperglycemia, diabetes, and hypoglycemia, which are related to glycolysis, have many causes, and endocrinology is also needed to help find the cause;

2. Abnormalities in various electrolyte solutions, such as high potassium, low potassium, high sodium, low sodium or abnormal blood potassium, such as high calcium, low calcium, abnormal bone metabolism, osteoporosis or frequent fractures, rickets and bone softening are all within the scope of treatment by endocrinologists;

3. There are many diseases of the endocrine glands, for example, the most common one is thyroid disease. The risk assessment of thyroid nodules malignancy requires the assistance of endocrinologists. Therefore, thyroid nodules should be seen by endocrinologists first. In addition, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and women who find that thyroid hormone is reduced before or during pregnancy should also communicate well with endocrinologists.

4. Sex hormone diseases, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome and sex hormone deficiency in women, are also diagnosed and treated by the endocrinology department.

5. Adrenal diseases. Adrenaline is a key growth hormone that helps regulate metabolism, such as salt, glycolysis, and lipid metabolism. Therefore, for some conditions like high blood pressure, it is necessary to see an endocrinologist to find out the cause, or even to undergo surgical treatment in the endocrinology department.

6. The endocrine gland duct also includes the pituitary gland, which is the command center of the endocrine gland. If there is a problem with it, such as pituitary dysfunction, a pituitary tumor, or a disease called diabetes insipidus in the posterior pituitary, the endocrinology department can help find the cause and provide appropriate treatment.

7. There is another guiding unit above the pituitary gland called the hypothalamus. Problems with the hypothalamus are called hypothalamic pituitary syndrome, which is also a disease that the endocrinology department needs to assist in diagnosing and treating. Therefore, the endocrinology department focuses on endocrine-related gland ducts and respiratory acidosis.
