Gynecological endocrinology is a branch of gynecology, which deals with various disorders that occur in ovarian and reproductive function in women as a consequence of disturbances in endocrinal (hormonal) imbalance. Many of the causes for infertility in women may be due to specific, and often undiagnosed, endocrine (i.e. hormone) pathology.

Among the conditions, addressed by the medical specialty of gynecological endocrinology, are:

• polycystic ovary syndrome
• amenorrhea
• acne
• hirsutism - condition of unwanted, male-pattern hair growth in women
• complications of the premenstrual syndrome
• various menstrual disorders
• premature menopause
• treat the symptoms of hormonal disorders of the female reproductive system

Estrogenе and progesterone are the two sex hormones that play a major role in the female body.

In gynecological endocrinology hormone replacement therapy (premenopausal and postmenopausal) is applied to control the characteristic symptoms of menopause. The therapy aims to replace the hormone production of the female sex, which is usually suspended after the menopause.

Hormone replacement therapy allows the recovery of estrogen and progesterone to normal levels for the body.

Gynecological endocrinology also addresses menstrual disorders, irregular uterine bleeding, weight gain (obesity) and metabolic syndrome.

Metabolic syndrome is characterized as a combination of obesity as well as other diseases and conditions of the homeostasis of fats, sugars and proteins in the body. This condition greatly increases the risk of subsequent development of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Specialists in gynecological endocrinology deal with the treatment of hirsutism - a condition defined as excessive or increased male-pattern hair growth in some female patients. It affects body parts as chin area, above the upper lip and the area below the ears, chest and breast areolas, abdomen, back, hips and fingers.

Gynecological endocrinology still deals with various dysfunction of the thyroid and adrenal gland.
