Alba Asso-Moreno is an Endocrinologist based in VIC, Australia. She looks after health concerns linked to hormones and how the body manages energy, weight and blood sugar.
Many people see her for issues like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and ovarian cysts. These can affect periods, skin changes, and how the body responds to insulin. She also helps with gestational diabetes during pregnancy, which can be stressful, especially when you’re trying to keep both mum and baby well.
Alba also works with people dealing with infertility. In many cases, hormone balance plays a big part, so the focus is on finding what might be driving symptoms and then making a practical plan for next steps.
Hormones don’t just affect fertility. Over time, they can also impact muscle strength, growth and overall body function. Alba supports patients who have conditions such as 3M syndrome and hypotonia, and she also looks after people with muscle atrophy.
Weight and metabolism are another key part of her work. Obesity can come from many factors, and it often affects mood, energy and long-term health. She takes a steady, down-to-earth approach, looking at the bigger picture and making sure goals feel realistic.
When someone comes in with one problem, it can sometimes connect to others. For example, PCOS may link in with changes in insulin, and that can also show up in how weight shifts. Alba helps patients make sense of these connections without overwhelming them with jargon.
In terms of experience, Alba has experience caring for people across a mix of endocrine and reproductive health needs, including ovarian cysts, PCOS, gestational diabetes, infertility, and broader hormone-related conditions. Her role is to guide care over time, not just to treat one result on a test.
She is trained to work as an endocrinologist, with a focus on safe, everyday management and clear explanations. If further input is needed, she works alongside other local health professionals to keep care coordinated.
