"Doctor, then what kind of endocrine disorder might I have?" the patient asked after pondering for a while.
"If we start discussing that, it would involve the entire system. Our bodies' pituitary glands and other glands all secrete special substances to help maintain our health and various functions," Liu Banxia said with a smile.
"From what I see, you're not elderly, so natural aging can be ruled out. You have regular eating habits and a consistent lifestyle, so it's unlikely that the issue is related to your diet or lifestyle."
"We can also basically rule out intake issues because you're very careful in that area. If that's the case, the problem might be with the parathyroid glands."
"Thyroid? But I don't have a goiter, and I'm not constantly hungry or eating like someone with thyroid disease. I eat regular meals!" The patient was a bit worried.
Liu Banxia laughed. "It's called the parathyroid gland not because it is the thyroid, but because it's located next to the thyroid."
