Balance is an important factor that sustains the world. This balance itself is the reason we lead our life beautifully. When the balance is tampered with problems arise.
This is relevant to your child’s body too.
Growth, development, moods and even character formation of your child depends on his endocrine system. Endocrine system consists of nine glands:
Each of these glands produces specific hormones which have a vital part in your child’s life. From sleeping to cell repair, from appetite to metabolism, from blood pressure to pain regulation, everything is highly influenced by the hormones. Keeping the right level of hormone in the blood stream is important for the daily body functions.
The critical task of regulating hormones by the endocrine system can be hampered due to various reasons. This will result in releasing a particular hormone too much or too little than the required level. These ups and downs of hormonal levels create what may be termed as ‘hormonal imbalance’ in children. Often the diseases that arise due to hormonal imbalances are passed off as other reasons. For example, obesity is always connected with unhealthy diet when the original culprit is the imbalanced hormone.
There is a perfect feedback system for the endocrine glands that signals when there are slight changes in the hormone level so that it can be regulated fast and maintain the hormonal balance. Psychological issues and health issues may effect this feedback system resulting hormonal imbalance.
Some of the health issues that cause hormonal imbalance in children are:
Psychological causes include stress and strain they face in day to day life
Hormonal imbalance has a far-reaching effect in growing children. During these days, the hormonal imbalance is found to increase among the children. Some of the psychological issues that arise due to the hormonal imbalance among children includes anxiety, hyper activity, mood swings, poor social habits inability to concentrate etc.
Treatment of hormonal imbalance in children depends up on several factors like severity, causes etc. Only an endocrinologist could suggest an appropriate treatment. So consult a pediatric endocrinologist as soon as you doubt a hormonal imbalance in your child. Anyway good exercise or practicing yoga along with medication will increase the results.
