Answers to Frequently Asked Clinical Questions

This course provides answers to frequently encountered questions across the spectrum of endocrinology, including:

How do I decipher diabetes devices?

How should I choose between the new medications for acromegaly and Cushing’s?

When a pituitary lesion is found incidentally, what could the diagnosis be, and what diagnostic tests should I order?

Do I need to treat a low TSH if the free T4 and T3 is normal and the patient feels fine?

Is there a new goal for TSH during pregnancy?

When should I repeat a screening bone density test?

When should I start and end an osteoporosis drug “holiday”?What is your approach to obesity-related / functional hypogonadism?

Is there a role for using SERMs (e.g., clomiphene) instead of Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) in hypogonadal men?

How do you monitor hematocrit and manage polycythemia on TRT?

What comorbidities should I screen for with PCOS?

How can I distinguish PCOS from hypothalamic amenorrhea in an athlete?

What is the difference between hormone replacement therapy and menopausal hormone therapy?

How can I tell if a patient with “spells” has a pheochromocytoma?

In a patient with an adrenal incidentaloma, what are the right tests to screen for hormone excess and when should I worry about adrenal cancer?

2. Learning Objectives
