The basic function of the pancreas is to regulate the basic metabolic processes that are performed in the body. What is the danger of hypo + and hyperfunction of this organ, and how are such disorders manifested?
Hyperfunction of the pancreas
It should be noted that this ailment is rare enough and manifests itself, as a rule, by a number of symptoms. So, initially, when there is hyperfunction, there is general weakness, fast fatigue, constant drowsiness, apathy. If at this stage, no appropriate treatment is prescribed, the disease will continue to progress, and the body's condition worsens: strong and painful cramps appear, often loss of consciousness, a sharp set of weight.
The main cause of pancreatic hyperfunction is a sharp decrease in glucose in the body, since a hormone like insulin is produced in excessive amounts. The main treatment in this case is the regulation of the work of this body, as well as control over the fact that its main functions are realized properly and in accordance with normal indicators. Also, the introduction of glucose into the body, which significantly alleviates the condition and eliminates the manifestation of the symptoms of the disease.
Pancreatic Hypo-Function
And here the hypofunction of the pancreas arises, not as an example, more often than hyperfunction, and is the main harbinger of the onset of diabetes mellitus. And all because hormones that regulate the amount of glucose in the body, are allocated in insufficient quantities, and accordingly, sugar exceeds all normal parameters. As a result, dehydration occurs, and therefore, the appearance of weakness, a sharp decrease or set of weight gain, headaches, copious drinking and, as a consequence, frequent urination.
Treatment of hypofunction of this body must be appointed by an experienced specialist, and appropriate medications will allow correcting the pancreas and restore the body.
It is important to note that hypo- and hyperfunction of the pancreas are dangerous diseases, the occurrence of which can turn into serious and far from favorable consequences for the body. That is why it is better not to allow the decrease or excess of the corresponding hormones that regulate the production of glucose, and if there are initial symptoms of such a disease, it is worthwhile, without losing time to turn to a specialist.
