Patient's question:
Seeked medical treatment at Beijing Children's Hospital, diagnosed with endocrine disorders, specifically: abnormal secretion of TSH and ACTH. Prescribed prednisone acetate tablets, which were completed, and had to switch to prednisone acetate tablets. Currently, the three tests are gradually normalizing.Born on August 24, 1999, the child was initially and cute, but became darker as he grew older.

On January 18, 2007, underwent immunochemical and biochemical tests at Beijing Children's Hospital, which were normal. Results from immunoassay (morning): COR--4.7 μg/dL, ACTH>1250 pg/mL, 17α-?Progesterone, 17-OHP--1.3 ng/mL, T--13.5 ng/dL.
Doctor's answer:
Hello,Endocrine disorders, which we often refer to as female endocrine disorders, generally manifest with the following symptoms:
1. Skin deterioration: Suddenly appearing many yellow spots and pigmentation, which are not improved by applying a lot of cosmetics. In fact, this is not just a simple skin problem. These spots are also caused by adverse external stimuli when the endocrine is unstable.
2. Irritability: Menopausal women often experience irritability and significant emotional changes, such as sweating and worsening mood. This may be due to a decline in female endocrine function.
3. Gynecological diseases: Gynecological endocrine diseases are very common. Endometriosis, irregular menstrual volume, dysmenorrhea, and menstrual disorders are all gynecological endocrine diseases. Some breast diseases are also related to endocrine disorders, and some facial pigmentation is also caused by gynecological
4. Obesity: "Even drinking cold water makes me gain weight," many people often complain. According to endocrinology doctors, this may be related to their own endocrine disorders. Habits such as high-calorie, high-fat foods and neglecting dietary balance can also affect the endocrine.
5. Infertility: Some women, after being married for many years and having normal sexual life, are unable to get pregnant. When checked in the hospital, the doctor tells them to adjust their endocrine first. The reason is that endocrine disorders make the cerebral cortex unable to regulate the endocrine well; or the endometrium is damaged and does not respond sensitively to female hormones, which affects the regulation of the endocrine reflexively and reduces the chance of successful conception.
6. Breast: Breast tenderness and breast hyperplasia are mainly due to endocrine disorders. The more important role of the breast is to promote its growth and development through the secretion of estrogen, so once the endocrine is unbalanced and chaotic, it is easy to form breast hyperplasia and breast cancer.
7. Body hair: Regardless of gender, the endocrine system in the body will simultaneously produce and release male and female hormones. The difference lies in that boys have more male hormones and girls have less, which gives rise to their respective characteristics. However, when the endocrine is disorders, if a woman's male hormone secretion is excessive, she may have symptoms of hypertrichosis.
8. White hair: Premature graying may also be an endocrine problem. In addition, endocrine disorders, especially the reduction of sex hormone secretion, are important reasons for human aging.

It is very beneficial to pay attention to exercise more in daily life. Wish the patient a speedy recovery
