What diseases can be caused by endocrine disorders?

Patient's question:

This past year, my menstrual cycle hasn't been very regular. The flow is a bit light, and it usually cleans up in just three days. Sometimes it comes once every two months, and other times it's more than a month apart. Every time it comes, I don't feel very good, and I even get acne on my face. There are also a few small spots near my eyes. I don't have much energy. Now I'm very afraid that things will get worse if this continues.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the symptoms of endocrine disorders are typically menstrual irregularities such as infrequent periods or amenorrhea, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, etc. The occurrence of endocrine disorders is actually related to the amount of hormones secreted by the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovary axis, and is also related to metabolic dysfunction, etc. If there are functional and organic disorders of the hypothalamus, dysfunction of the pituitary gland, pituitary adenomas, or ovarian dysfunction, it can lead to anovulation, thereby causing infertility. The essence of hyperplasia of mammary glands is caused by endocrine disorders in women.
