Hormone deficiency - Vitality Hormone Clinic

What is hormone deficiency?

Hormone deficiency, also known as endocrine hypofunction, occurs when glands in the endocrine system do not produce enough hormones. Hormones are essential chemical messengers that travel through the bloodstream and regulate many bodily processes like metabolism, growth, mood, sexual function, and reproduction.

Some common signs and symptoms of hormone deficiency include:

There are several types of hormone deficiencies depending on which gland is affected:

Diagnosing hormone deficiencies usually begins with blood tests to measure hormone levels. Imaging tests like CT scans or MRIs may also be used to evaluate the pituitary gland or other areas. Once diagnosed, hormone deficiencies are typically treated by replacing the missing hormones, often through medications, gels, patches, or injections. Lifelong hormone therapy may be necessary in many cases.
