Overview - Endocrinology and Diabetology
Endocrinology is about understanding how your hormones work and keeping them balanced to ensure your body functions smoothly. When managing diabetes and other hormone-related issues like thyroid problems, an Endocrinologist is your go-to expert. They specialise in diagnosing and treating conditions caused by hormonal imbalances. Whether you’re dealing with diabetes or another endocrine disorder, an Endocrinologist helps create personalised care plans to manage your health and keep you feeling your best.
Diabetology Treatment and Management
Osteoporosis, Osteomalacia and Metabolic Bone Diseases
These conditions can really put your bones at risk, making them more susceptible to fractures. The good news? You can manage them through medications that boost bone strength, alongside a healthy diet packed with calcium and vitamin D, and staying active with weight-bearing exercises.
Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Managing diabetes is crucial for both types. Type 1 usually means regular insulin injections or an insulin pump, while Type 2 often requires a mix of healthy eating, regular exercise, and sometimes medications to keep those blood sugar levels in check.
Diabetic Foot Ulcers
If you have diabetes, keep an eye on your feet! Diabetic foot ulcers can happen due to poor circulation. Treating them quickly is key, so regular cleaning, appropriate dressings, and good blood sugar control are essential for healing.
Dyslipidemia
Dyslipidemia means your cholesterol levels are out of whack, which can raise your risk of heart disease. The good news is that simple lifestyle changes—like eating healthier and getting more exercise—can make a big difference. Sometimes, doctors may prescribe medications to help manage it, too.
Obesity
Carrying extra weight can lead to health issues like diabetes and heart disease. The journey to a healthier weight often includes finding a balanced diet, staying active, and sometimes even looking into medications or surgery to help along the way.
Pregnancy Diabetes
Gestational diabetes can pop up during pregnancy, but it usually goes away after you have your baby. Keeping your blood sugar in check through healthy eating and regular monitoring is essential to keep both you and your little one healthy!
