- Chronic foci of infections,
- Frequent viral diseases,
- Transferred operations,
- Excessive mental loads.
The combination of all these factors can lead to a failure in the complex work of the internal secretion glands.
Manifestations of hypothalamic syndrome
The following violations include signs of hypothalamic syndrome:
- headache
- dizziness, more pronounced in the morning, when tilting the body;
- weakness,
- irritability,
- nausea,
