A Review of Neurological Disorders Caused by Hormonal Abnormalities

Abstract

Endocrine dysfunction can considerably impact the nervous system. Various nonspecific neurological symptoms can manifest, including headache, muscle weakness, involuntary movements, and impaired consciousness. Because of their lack of specificity, endocrine abnormalities underlying neurological symptoms may not be recognized and making the diagnosis may be challenging. It is essential that clinicians not overlook endocrine disorders when diagnosing neurological symptoms, as prompt and appropriate treatment, such as hormone replacement therapy, can improve a patient's general condition and neurological symptoms.
