Metabolic Syndrome

Hormones and Metabolic Syndrome

The things that make you more likely to develop metabolic syndrome include Insulin resistance. A hormone disorder such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a condition in which the female body produces too much of certain hormones, is associated with metabolic syndrome. In the metabolic syndrome (MS), a condition that associates three or more pathologies such as hypertension, central obesity, type II diabetes, insulin resistance and dyslipidemias, the kidneys are severely affected. The pathological alterations in the kidneys, associated with Metabolic Syndrome, may be modified by sex hormone levels.
