What Does an Endocrinologist Do?

Your body relies on your endocrine system, a group of hormone-producing glands in the body, to maintain a balance for your body’s basic functions such as metabolism, mood, fertility, growth, sexual development and more. If your hormones are out of balance, an endocrinologist can provide specialized care to diagnose and treat the issue.

Your primary care provider can help you manage prediabetes and even diabetes in some cases. However, if you have concerns about your hormonal health or have been referred by your primary care doctor, spending time with an endocrinologist can help provide a specialized approach to diagnosing and managing your condition. Your endocrinologist may recommend diagnostic testing, medication or hormone therapy or surgery. Not every condition, however, needs medical intervention.
