Conn Syndrome treatment in Benito Juárez

Conn syndrome is a disorder in which the adrenal glands produce an excess of aldosterone, the hormone that helps regulate the balance of salt, water and blood pressure in the body.

Usual consequences: This excess tends to raise blood pressure and can alter potassium levels, which sometimes causes fatigue, cramps or muscle weakness.

When to suspect it: It is usually considered with difficult-to-control high blood pressure or when low potassium levels are detected on routine tests.

Who evaluates it? The endocrinologist is the specialist who studies the adrenal hormones and guides the necessary tests. If you have persistent hypertension or laboratory results that draw attention, discussing it with this professional helps clarify the cause.
