# Endocrinology in Almada and Seixal

When tiredness, weight or mood have a hormonal cause, this is where we look, and where we set it right.

## What it treats

- Thyroid disease (hypo- and hyperthyroidism)
- Type 1 and type 2 diabetes
- Obesity and metabolic disorders
- High cholesterol and triglycerides
- Osteoporosis and calcium metabolism
- Hormonal and adrenal disorders

## When to book

- Persistent tiredness nothing explains
- You gained or lost weight without changing habits
- You have diabetes needing follow-up
- You felt a lump or change in your neck

## Related exams

- Hormonal and metabolic lab tests
- Cardiometabolic risk assessment

## Frequently asked questions

### Do I manage diabetes here or with my family doctor?

Both. Your family doctor handles the day-to-day, and endocrinology steps in when control is hard or complications appear.
