Endocrinology, Diabetology and Metabolic Disorders

Overview

What are Endocrinology, Diabetology & Metabolic Disorders?

Endocrinology, Diabetology and Metabolic Disorders are specialised fields of medicine that are dedicated to treating conditions related to hormones, metabolism and the endocrine glands, which are responsible for regulating many essential functions in our bodies and are the body's internal messaging system. Doctors across this speciality play a vital role in diagnosing and managing a variety of chronic conditions for patients of all ages including diabetes, thyroid diseases, obesity-related hormonal imbalances, adrenal disorders, metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis and a wide range of other hormone-linked health concerns.

Science has proven that hormones have a direct influence on our lives and are responsible for everything from energy levels, growth and fertility to stress responses, weight management and blood sugar control.
