Adrenal Disorders

Specialized Endocrine Care for Hormonal Balance and Adrenal Health

The adrenal glands are small but powerful hormone producers that help regulate metabolism, blood pressure, immune response, and how your body handles stress. When adrenal function becomes imbalanced—either producing too much or too little hormone—it can cause a wide range of symptoms and health complications.

At the Gastroenterology and Advanced Metabolic Institute of Texas, our endocrinology team offers expert diagnosis and management for adrenal disorders, providing personalized care grounded in the latest medical research.

Adrenal Conditions We Treat

• Adrenal Insufficiency (Addison’s Disease) – Low cortisol levels causing fatigue, low blood pressure, and salt cravings
• Cushing’s Syndrome – High cortisol production leading to weight gain, muscle loss, and high blood sugar
• Adrenal Tumors or Nodules – Often discovered during imaging; may or may not affect hormone levels
• Primary Aldosteronism (Conn’s Syndrome) – Excess aldosterone that can cause high blood pressure and low potassium
• Pheochromocytoma – A rare adrenal tumor that can lead to severe spikes in blood pressure
• Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) – A genetic condition that alters cortisol and aldosterone production

How We Diagnose and Treat Adrenal Disorders

At the Gastroenterology and Advanced Metabolic Institute of Texas, we begin with a detailed evaluation of your symptoms and medical history. We use targeted hormone testing (blood, urine, and saliva), imaging studies like CT or MRI, and specialized stimulation/suppression tests to get accurate insights into adrenal function.

Treatment may involve:

• Hormone replacement therapy
• Medications to regulate hormone output
• Monitoring or removal of adrenal tumors
• Lifestyle and metabolic support

Our goal is to restore hormonal balance, prevent complications, and help you regain energy and well-being.
