An endocrinologist is a hormone doctor. Some of the symptoms that would warrant care from an endocrinologist include:

  • High blood sugar, thirst, frequent urination (Diabetes)
  • Staying hot, sweaty, angry, "hyper," and skinny (high thyroid)
  • Overweight, depressed, extremely tired (possible low thyroid)
  • Having a "goiter" (sign of thyroid trouble, usually high, but sometimes low)
  • Moon-shaped face, hump on the back (Cushing's Syndrome)
  • Stunted growth in children (pituitary problems)
  • Surgical or early menopause if Ob/Gyn is not prescribing hormones.

Also, if someone has a deep-seated need to live as a member of the opposite sex, a psychologist will refer someone to an endocrinologist for sex hormones.

If you are diabetic and only have periods every six months is there a way you can have them more often?

Possibly the pill can help you regulate you period better. Of course if you are trying to get pregnant then this won't work. Does your GYN know about your infrequent periods? I would give him a call and see what he can do for you. Also, ask about polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), most likely needing a referral to an endocrinologist to get tested and diagnosed for it. Some of the hallmark symptoms of PCOS is infrequent ovulation/ menstruation and obesity, and, it is highly corellated with insulin resistance/ type 2 diabetes. If you are only having your period twice a year, I would strongly recommend consulting with you physician/endocrinologist.
