Preventing Complications
Managing adrenal disorders early can prevent serious complications such as adrenal crises, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular issues, enhancing long-term health outcomes.
What is Adrenal Insufficiency and How is it Treated?
Adrenal Insufficiency/ Addison s disease: This condition occurs when the adrenal glands don’t produce enough hormones, especially cortisol and aldosterone. It can lead to symptoms like fatigue, low blood pressure, and muscle weakness. At Aura, we are trained to diagnose this disorder in a timely manner to help the patient get appropriate treatment.
What is Cushing’s Syndrome and What Causes It?
- Cushing’s Syndrome: This is caused by prolonged exposure to high levels of cortisol, either from your body overproducing the hormone or from long-term use of steroid medications. Symptoms include weight gain, high blood pressure, and easy bruising. We offer a detailed evaluation and treatment to prevent complications.
