An endocrinologist will ask you questions regarding your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, previous medications, and consultations. Your vital signs, such as blood pressure and sugar levels, and a comprehensive physical examination are also done. Imaging or advanced screening procedures might be prescribed based on the assessment. Treatment plans are later discussed, depending on the overall results obtained.
