Endocrinology is a medical speciality that focuses on hormone-related diseases such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, osteoporosis, and hormonal imbalances of the reproductive system.

An endocrinologist diagnoses and treats conditions related to hormonal imbalances. Endocrinologists use diagnostic tests to identify hormonal imbalances and develop a personalised treatment plan for each patient. An endocrinologist in Chennai and other cities is trained to use advanced methods to deal with hormone-related disorders.

Hormonal imbalances often manifest as vague symptoms that may be overlooked or attributed to other causes. If you are in Chennai and suffering from hormonal disorders, the best endocrinologist in Chennai can propose effective treatment plans.

Frequently Asked Questions for Endocrinologists in Chennai

Several blood tests are conducted to check hormone levels in the body. Commonly, blood tests assess the levels of hormones like thyroid-stimulating hormones, follicle-stimulating hormones, estradiol, cortisol, testosterone, prolactin, insulin, growth hormone, parathyroid hormone etc.

An endocrinologist is a doctor who diagnoses and treats disorders of the endocrine system, which includes conditions like diabetes. Whereas a diabetologist is a physician who focuses primarily on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diabetes. While both may treat diabetes, an endocrinologist has a broader scope of practice encompassing other endocrine disorders.

Patients who require specialized care for conditions related to the endocrine system, such as diabetes, thyroid problems, certain cancers, or adrenal disorders, should consider seeing an endocrinologist. Referrals to an endocrinologist are typically made by primary care doctors when there are concerns about an endocrine-related issue.

Endocrinology tests are medical examinations and diagnostic procedures conducted to evaluate the functioning of the endocrine system. These tests may involve blood or urine samples to measure hormone levels, imaging techniques like ultrasound or MRI to assess glandular structures, genetic testing to identify inherited endocrine disorders, or biopsies to examine tissue samples for abnormalities.

Endocrinologists treat disorders of the endocrine system, including diabetes, thyroid diseases, infertility, growth issues, metabolic disorders, osteoporosis, adrenal and pituitary gland disorders. They also collaborate with other specialists when disorders originating elsewhere affect the endocrine system.
