Genetic Endocrine Disorders

Genetic endocrine disorders are conditions caused by changes in genes that affect the endocrine system, which is responsible for producing hormones. Hormones regulate various body functions, including growth, metabolism, and mood. When there are genetic mutations, it can lead to imbalances, causing issues like growth disorders, thyroid problems, or diabetes. These disorders can be inherited or occur spontaneously. Diagnosis often involves blood tests to assess hormone levels, and treatment may include hormone replacement therapy or other medications to help manage symptoms and maintain hormonal balance in the body.
