What is Pediatric Endocrinology?
Pediatric Endocrinology deals with the study and treatment of endocrine system disorders in children. The endocrine system involves glands that produce hormones, which are crucial for regulating various bodily functions, including growth, metabolism, and sexual development.
Diabetes Mellitus: We manage both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, providing comprehensive care that includes blood sugar monitoring, insulin therapy, and lifestyle management to help your child lead a healthy life.
Thyroid Disorders: Conditions like hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) can impact your child’s growth and energy levels. We offer targeted treatments to regulate thyroid hormone levels and support overall health.
Growth Disorders: We address issues related to abnormal growth patterns, including short stature or excessive growth. Our treatments may include hormone therapy and regular monitoring to ensure healthy growth.
Puberty Disorders: Early or delayed puberty can affect a child’s physical and emotional development. We provide evaluations and treatments to address these conditions and support normal puberty progression.
Adrenal Disorders: Disorders of the adrenal glands, such as Addison’s disease or Cushing’s syndrome, require specialized care. We offer diagnostic testing and tailored treatment plans to manage these conditions effectively.
Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia: Abnormal blood sugar levels can cause a range of symptoms and health issues. We work to stabilize blood sugar levels and address any underlying causes.
