Types of Hormonal and Metabolic Dysfunction
Anterior
Pituitary
Produces excessive
T3 & T4 hormone
weight loss, anxiety
irritability,
sweating, eye bulging
TSH levels are low
ultrasound
or imaging
Hyperthyroidism
(Graves Disease)
methimazole and
propylthiouracil (T3 T4 blockers)
Insufficient T3 & T4
hormone
fatigue, weight gain
cold intolerance, hair loss,
dry skin, depression
TSH levels are HIGH
Hypothyroidism
levothyroxine (T4)
replacement therapy
prolonged exposure
to cortisol
use of
corticosteroid medications
obesity, acne,
easy bruising, hypertension
measure serum
cortisol levels
Cushing
Syndrome
reduce corticosteroid medications
Surgery to remove the pituitary or adrenal tumors
autoimmune destruction of the adrenal cortex.
reduced production of cortisol
and aldosterone
fatigue, weakness, weight loss,
anorexia, and abdominal pain
rapid ACTH stimulation test
cortisol and aldosterone levels are low
and ACTH levels are high.
Addison Disease
hormone replacement
therapy for deficient cortisol
and aldosterone hormones
Posterior
Pituitary
Produces too much ADH
seizures, fatigue, weakness
decreased urine output
Test urine osmolality
and urine sodium levels
SIADH
Fluid restriction
IV
insufficient
ADH
excessive thirst
large urine output
water deprivation test
desmopressin stimulation test
Diabetes
Insipidus
IV of Hypotonic Fluid
RX of Antidiuretiv
