Pediatric Endocrinology
Pediatric endocrinology is a specialized field focused on addressing the unique hormonal concerns that affect children, encompassing issues related to growth, puberty, diabetes, and other conditions associated with hormonal fluctuations. The intricate web of hormones in a child's body plays a pivotal role in orchestrating the functioning of various biological systems. These hormones govern the pace of a child's growth and maturation as they journey through childhood. Deviations within the endocrine system can lead to an array of conditions, including growth disorders, osteoporosis, bone maladies, rickets, childhood obesity, and lipid disorders.
At Rainbow Children’s Hospital, our dedicated Pediatric Endocrinology department is committed to early detection, precise diagnosis, and the treatment of hormonal disorders in children, with a keen focus on averting long-term complications.
