Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is a drop in sugar (glucose) in the blood below normal levels. Because glucose is the body's main source of energy, its lack can quickly affect the body's function.
Which specialist treats it? The endocrinologist and the diabetologist are the reference when there is underlying diabetes or hormonal problems, the internist and the general practitioner support the follow-up, and a severe episode may require emergency care.
Frequent symptoms: Tremors, sweating, palpitations, intense hunger, dizziness, confusion, and, in severe cases, loss of consciousness.
Common causes: It is usually related to skipping meals, intense physical effort, or the management of diabetes, though it may also have other origins. If the episodes recur, it's worth having a professional check what is causing them.
