Adrenogenital Syndrome treatment in Ciudad de México

Adrenogenital syndrome, known as congenital adrenal hyperplasia, is a group of disorders present from birth in which the adrenal glands do not produce certain hormones in a balanced way.

How does it present? Depending on the type, it may be noticed in the development of the genitals, in growth abnormalities, in changes at puberty, or, in more serious forms, in imbalances that appear in the first days of life.

Common causes: It has a genetic origin that affects the production of hormones in the adrenal gland.

Which specialist treats it? The endocrinologist studies the hormonal balance, and the pediatrician supports the child's growth and development. In the presence of signs of atypical hormonal development, a specialized evaluation makes it possible to understand the situation and provide appropriate follow-up.
