Here is the list of possible hormonal diseases : Acromegaly
Acromegaly is a rare but serious condition caused by growth hormone excess and affects children and adults differently. Each year, about three new cases of acromegaly occur for every million people.
Adrenal Fatigue
Supporters of adrenal fatigue believe the problem begins when many different life stresses become too much for the body to handle.
Adrenal Insufficiency
There are two types of adrenal insufficiency. This rare condition should not be confused with adrenal fatigue (which is not a true medical condition).
Amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is the term used when a woman or adolescent girl is not having menstrual periods, and is also the sign of another medical condition. Anorexia
Anorexia nervosa is a condition in which a person loses an unhealthy amount of weight on purpose through dieting, sometimes along with excessive exercise, bingeing, and/or purging.
Autoimmune Disease
Immune system disorders can cause your body to attack healthy cells by mistake. Women are at a higher risk for developing autoimmune conditions.
Breast Cancer and Bone Loss
Certain treatments for breast cancer can lead to bone loss because they decrease estrogen, the main female hormone.
Cancer
Hormonal imbalances caused by abnormal cell growth or toxins can lead to serious health problems and sometimes even cancer e.g. breast cancer.
Cardiovascular Disease and Type 2 Diabetes
Cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes is preventable, but your risk can increase greatly if there is a metabolic risk for developing these conditions.
Congenital Hypothyroidism
About 1 in every 2,000 to 4,000 babies is born with congenital hypothyroidism. Newborn babies who are unable to make enough thyroid hormone have congenital hypothyroidism.
Cushing Syndrome
Cushing syndrome consists of the physical and mental changes that result from having too much cortisol in the blood for a long period of time.
Delayed Puberty
Delayed puberty is when children develop later than their peers.
Diabetes
One in 11 adults worldwide has diabetes, and endocrinologists are on the front lines battling this public health crisis.
Keeping your glucose levels close to normal will greatly lower your chances of developing long-term complications. If you already have complications, keeping your glucose levels close to normal will help keep these problems from getting worse.
Diabetes and Heart Disease
People with diabetes are more likely to develop heart disease than people who do not have diabetes.
Diabetic Neuropathy
Diabetic neuropathy is nerve damage from high blood glucose (sugar) levels in people with diabetes. Keeping your glucose levels in the target range will greatly lower your chances of developing long-term complications.
Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes where high blood glucose causes damage to the blood vessels in the light-sensitive part of the back part of the eye. More than 80% of people who have had diabetes 20 years or longer develop diabetic retinopathy.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a condition in which the tissue usually found inside the uterus grows in places where it shouldn’t.
Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome
Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome (FCS) is a rare, life-threatening disease that prevents the body from digesting fats. If you suspect that you or a loved one has FCS find a physician who can diagnose you and help you understand FCS.
Gestational Diabetes
Gestational diabetes affects about 4–8 of every 100 pregnant women in the United States. Any pregnant woman can develop the condition, but some women are at greater risk than others.
Goiter
When your thyroid gland is enlarged, it can produce too much, too little, or just enough thyroid hormone.
Graves Disease
Graves disease is an autoimmune disease more common in women between age 20 and 50, who often have a family history of thyroid disease
Growth Hormone Deficiency
Human growth hormone (GH) is a substance that controls your body’s growth.
Hirsutism
Excessive unwanted hair growth in women can be uncomfortable and is usually linked to an underlying endocrine disorder called hirsutism. Hirsutism is very common, affecting 5% – 10% of all women.
Hypercalcemia
People with high blood calcium have above-normal levels of calcium in their blood.
Hyperglycemia
This patient guide for glucose control in the hospital is based on the Endocrine Society’s practice guideline for health care providers on preventing and treating high blood glucose (HBG).
Hyperprolactinemia
High levels of prolactin can produce unwanted effects in human.
Hypertension
Over 50 million adults have high blood pressure. It is the leading cause of cardiovascular disease.
Hyperthyroidism and Pregnancy
Thyroid dysfunction can start during or after pregnancy in women who never had thyroid problems before. This occurs because pregnancy causes major changes in the levels of hormones made in the thyroid gland
Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is the term for low blood glucose. People living with diabetes must monitor blood sugar often to keep it in a target range.
Hypopituitarism
Hypopituitarism (also called pituitary insufficiency) is a rare condition in which your pituitary gland doesn’t make enough of certain hormones.
Hypothyroidism and Pregnancy
Hypothyroidism during pregnancy is not common. However, the symptoms can be overlooked because some mimic the hormonal changes of a normal pregnancy, such as tiredness and weight gain.
Infertility in Females
About 35% to 40% of infertility cases are due to female infertility, but male infertility is a factor in 40%.
Kidney Disease
Diabetes is the most common cause of kidney failure. Keeping your glucose levels in the target range will greatly lower your chances of developing long-term complications.
Menopause
Menopause is a natural part of a woman’s life. As women approach mid-life, estrogen levels start to fluctuate and then drop.
Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic syndrome describes a cluster of risk factors that increase the chances of developing heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Obesity
Obesity is a global epidemic on the rise. This chronic long-term disease that can cause harmful complications.
Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a progressive condition in which bones become structurally weak and are more likely to fracture or break. It is also called Silent Disease.
PMS and PMDD
Premenstrual dysphonic disorder (PMDD) is a more severe form of PMS, affecting about 3 to 6 percent of women.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome PCOS
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormone disorder affecting 7–10% of women of childbearing age and is the most common cause of infertility.
Post Menopause and Osteoporosis
Preventing bone loss is an important concern for women in the menopause and during post-menopausal stages.
Precocious Early Puberty
Many children who go through puberty early or late have other family members who went through puberty early or late.
Primary Aldosteronism
When the increase of aldosterone causes a problem in your adrenal glands, the condition is called primary aldosteronism.
Primary Ovarian Insufficiency
Thyroid Cancer
Many people have nodules on the thyroid, and over 90% of those nodules are not cancerous. However, when they are cancerous, they need to be treated to protect thyroid function and prevent the cancer from spreading.
Thyroid nodules are very common and occur more often in women than men. Pregnancy causes major changes in the levels of hormones made in the thyroid gland.
Traumatic Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can affect your endocrine system, including the effects a TBI can have on hormone health.
Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome occurs in about 1 in 2,000 female births worldwide.
Type 1 & 2 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system destroys the insulin produced in the pancreas. Type 2 diabetes accounts for about 90% to 95% of all diabetes cases.
Vaginal Atrophy
Vaginal atrophy is a condition in which the lining of the vagina becomes thinner and drier.
Vitamin D and Calcium
Bone is a living tissue that is constantly breaking down and being replaced. Throughout life, your body balances the loss of bone with the creation of new bone
Weight Loss
Research has proven that changing eating habits and increasing physical activity can help people lose weight
Wilsons Temperature Syndrome
Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome provides factual information on its history and relation to medically proven diseases.
