🌟 Honored to speak on #thyroid disease in #pregnancy at TXEA 2025 — and even more grateful for this stunning resort setting!

Learning, leisure, and top-notch planning. Kudos to the organizers! 🦋🌿

Looking forward to the meeting in DFW next year!

Not a certified #bonehead, but had to admire the commitment to branding: the #osteoporosis slide citing “Bone et al., JCEM” at the TXEA/TESS 2025 meeting really delivered. 💀🦴 #EndocrineHumor #EndocrineAlliance #EndoSky

Our latest clinical practice guideline, Primary Aldosteronism (bit.ly/44MbrSv), is now available. The new guideline recommends more widespread screening for a common hormonal cause of high blood pressure known as primary aldosteronism. Read in @endocrinenews.bsky.social: bit.ly/4kFadhv #ENDO2025

My favorite talk of #Endo2025 is @liisagalea.bsky.social but also the entire sex differences session full of things we know but for some reason have ignored: females are different than males. Not more complex. Not more dynamic. Different. It’s not sexist to use funds to study this; it’s necessary.

🎙️ Listening to the very well attended session on #thyroid disease in #pregnancy 🤰at #ENDO2025!

Going to be talking about the same subject at the TXEA/TESS meeting coming up in a few weeks - thought I’d get a few pointers 😎

Proud of our UTSW people lighting up the poster halls at #ENDO2025! Smart science, sharp design, and plenty of endocrine swagger. 💥🧠📊

Decided to branch out from #thyroid disease and attend some #adrenal sessions…

Interesting - you can consider treating primary bilateral adrenal hyperplasia (#PBMAH) with a unilateral #adrenalectomy!

Increased vascularity seen on #thyroid ultrasonography in the recovery phase (TSH: 17) of subacute #thyroiditis.

In contrast to the acute phase, where the patient is #hyperthyroid, with decreased or absent vascularity.

A hard copy version of #ThyroidRFA was delivered a few weeks ago.

📚 Forgot how good it feels to flip pages instead of staring at the screen!

📗 Let’s hope I can unplug from Epic for long enough to do some reading! 📖

This study confirms my anecdotal/clinical experience that about ~ 50% of patients feel better with the addition of T3 to their regimen for #hypothyroidism 🦋

[ #Thyroid function tests still need to be maintained in the normal range ]

#RFA works for toxic adenomas - resolving #hyperthyroidism & reducing volume of #thyroidnodule. Interestingly, this study (unlike prior studies) had similar results no matter the initial volume.
