PCOS isn’t just about cycles; it’s a hormone imbalance that can impact long-term health if left unrecognized.

The good news? Early evaluation can help us understand what’s really going on and create a plan that supports healthy hormones, confidence, and overall well-being.

Has your teen’s symptoms ever made you wonder if something more might be going on?

Added sugar hides in more foods than you’d expect — even the ones marketed as ‘healthy.’

As a pediatric endocrinologist, I always tell parents to flip the package over and read the *ingredients*, not just the front label.

Look out for words like cane sugar, fructose, corn syrup, agave, maltose, and anything ending in ‘-ose.’ These are all added sugars that can contribute to insulin resistance, inflammation, and poor energy levels in kids.

Small swaps make a big difference. What food label shocked you the most? Tell me in the comments!

As a pediatric endocrinologist, I always remind parents: hidden sugar is everywhere—even in foods we think are healthy. 🍯🥜

This peanut butter comparison says it all: one simple ingredient list… and one with added sugar your child doesn’t need.

🛒 Tip: When shopping, flip the jar over and read the ingredients. If sugar is sneaking into everyday staples, it may be adding up more than you realize.

Your child’s hormones, energy, and long-term health will thank you. 💛

Unexpected weight gain in kids isn’t always about food or activity. Sometimes the root cause is hormonal—like insulin resistance or early signs of PCOS—and parents don’t realize it until much later.

The earlier we check, the easier it is to help. If your child’s weight has changed without a clear reason, a pediatric endocrinology evaluation can make all the difference. 💫

What questions do you have about hormonal causes of weight gain?

So many kids and teens are coming in asking about “peptide injections” to make them taller.
Here’s the medical truth: peptides are NOT growth hormone, NOT approved for children, and won’t increase height.

If you’re worried about your child’s growth, the answer isn’t online supplements — it’s a real endocrine evaluation.
I’m here to guide you with evidence-based, safe pediatric care. 💛

Spotting early signs of hormonal imbalance in children can be challenging—but knowing what to look for can make all the difference.

As parents, you might notice subtle changes in your child's growth, energy levels, mood, or development that don't quite add up. These early signals often go unnoticed or are mistaken for normal childhood ups and downs.

For example, sudden changes like unexplained weight gain or loss, early or delayed puberty, irregular periods, or persistent fatigue can indicate an underlying hormonal issue. These signs deserve timely attention to ensure your child's health and well-being.

At Endo Kids Concierge, we specialize in personalized endocrine care tailored to each child's unique needs. With direct access to Dr. Rinku Mehra, a board-certified pediatric endocrinologist, families receive thorough evaluations and compassionate guidance every step of the way.

Recognizing hormonal imbalance early means we can create effective care plans that support your child's growth and development—giving you confidence and peace of mind.

If you've noticed any of these signs or just want to understand your child's endocrine health better, don't wait.

Your child deserves expert care that feels personal, accessible, and empowering.

Have questions or concerns? Let's talk about how Endo Kids Concierge can help your family thrive.
