A Study of Hormonal Abnormalities in Chronic Liver Disease.

Conclusion: Significant alterations of hormonal profile starting early in the development of CLD of any etiology occur which may need treatment or close follow up. ALD may have worse outcome due to disturbed metabolism of sex hormones, cortisol and insulin. The normal endocrine homeostasis of the body may become disrupted in presence of CLD which may also influence outcome. PMID: 31311219 [PubMed - in process]
