The work of the hormonal system is important for the body, because On its activities a lot of things depend. Various dysfunctions or disturbances in the work of hormones are most common in women, but men can also suffer from this. What is the hormonal failure, the signs, causes and methods of treating this disease - that's what is worth considering today.
About women
The most common failures of the hormonal system are women. These disorders affect almost the entire body of a woman, but the most vulnerable place is the female reproductive system. In this case, the least that can be - malfunctions of the menstrual cycle. In more severe cases - the emergence of various gynecological diseases.
Symptoms
Whether it is possible to define or determine somehow independently, that there was a hormonal failure. Symptoms can be as follows. The most pleasant for a woman, but not for the body, a sign is weight loss. If a woman eats a lot, but at the same time losing weight, you can safely diagnose her disruption of the hormonal system. However, in such cases it is necessary to take into account the hereditary factor, because such a "gift" nature can still make certain people. Diagnosing the disease, it is necessary to take into account other factors: a woman may have subfebrile temperature, tremor, sleep disturbances. Obesity can also say that a woman is not all right with hormones. A quick set of body weight should also force a woman to turn to an endocrinologist. How else can you diagnose a hormonal failure? Signs can be: hypertrichosis - increased hairiness of the female body, stretch marks (even in nulliparous), itching of the skin (it should be borne in mind that this can also be a sign of diabetes). In the most severe cases, the failure of the hormones can lead to a disease such as acromegaly, when the person has a coarsening of facial features, protrusion of the jaw and brow ridges. Women at a certain age can also overtake hormonal failure. Signs of the disease in this situation: a change in the amount of certain hormones in the body, which is not very noticeable, but this can be evidenced by the unstable work of the nervous system (about 30 years of the woman, when the ideal period for conception and bearing the baby ends). There is also an offensive of menopause in women in about 50 years. Signs of hormonal failure in girls are most often manifested in the wrong work of the menstrual cycle, in which case it is also better to turn first to the gynecologist, and then, perhaps, to the endocrinologist.
About men
Although much less often, men can also experience hormonal failure. Signs of this disease in the stronger sex: firstly, there can be a sharp decline in the sexual desire of a man, there can be both obesity and loss of muscle mass - noticeable weight loss, reduction of hair on the body, general weakening of immunity. There are also frequent depressions and depressed state. There may also be signs of hormonal failure in men, like gynecomastia, i.e. An increase in the mammary glands of a man, an increase in the "female" breast. It is worth noting that the treatment of hormonal failure should be prescribed exclusively by a doctor based on the results of the analysis. However, each of himself can also help in this. Just need to lead a healthy lifestyle: eat right, be outdoors, and also load the body with feasible physical labor.
