Pediatric and Adolescent Reproductive Endocrinology

Pediatric and Adolescent Reproductive Endocrinology focuses on the hormonal and reproductive health of children and teenagers, particularly girls. This specialty addresses issues such as puberty, menstrual disorders, and hormone imbalances. It involves understanding how hormones affect growth, development, and reproductive functions, ensuring that young patients receive appropriate care for conditions like early or delayed puberty, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and other endocrine disorders. By addressing these concerns, healthcare providers help support healthy development and well-being during formative years.
