Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Endocrine care with Dr. Mustafa Kinaan:

What is an Endocrinologist?

An endocrinologist is a doctor specializing in the endocrine system, the network of glands that produce hormones. They diagnose and treat hormonal imbalances, and manage conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, osteoporosis, and PCOS.

What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes?

Common symptoms of an underactive thyroid include fatigue, weight gain, constipation, dry skin, hair loss, and feeling cold. These symptoms are often effectively managed with thyroid hormone replacement therapy, which Dr. Mustafa Kinaan can prescribe and monitor.

What is osteoporosis and how can I prevent it?

Osteoporosis is a condition that causes bones to become weak and brittle, increasing the risk of fractures. Prevention involves ensuring adequate calcium and vitamin D intake, performing weight-bearing exercise, and avoiding smoking. Dr. Kinaan can assess your risk and recommend a bone density scan.

Why is it important to control blood sugar during pregnancy?

Controlling blood sugar during pregnancy is vital to prevent complications for both you and your baby, including a larger-than-average baby, a potential need for a C-section, and a reduced risk of developing Type 2 diabetes later in life.
