Neuroendocrine Disorders

Neuroendocrine disorders in pediatric endocrinology involve problems with the connections between the brain and the hormonal system. The brain controls hormone production through the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. When these connections are disrupted, it can lead to issues such as abnormal growth, early or delayed puberty, or problems with metabolism and body functions. These disorders can affect a child's development and overall health, requiring careful diagnosis and management by healthcare professionals to ensure proper growth and hormonal balance.
