Hormone problems can be tricky, and they often affect more than one body system. Michael looks after people dealing with adrenal and hormone conditions, including hyperaldosteronism and familial hyperaldosteronism. He also helps manage hypertension where hormones may be part of the cause.
Adrenal gland issues are a big part of his work. This can include adrenal gland adenoma, adrenal cancer, and problems linked to low potassium levels. At times, these conditions can show up through blood pressure changes, tiredness, muscle weakness, or feeling “off” in day-to-day life. In many cases, getting the right hormone diagnosis is a key step before the best treatment plan can be chosen.
Michael also supports patients with Cushing’s syndrome. That can be a confusing condition, because symptoms can build slowly and overlap with other health issues. He focuses on making sense of what’s happening in the body, using careful clinical judgement and the usual hormone-focused workup that doctors rely on.
Weight can also link in with hormone health. Michael works with people living with obesity, especially when hormones might be affecting appetite, energy, or fat distribution. He understands that changing weight is not just “willpower”, and he aims for a calm, practical approach that fits the whole person, not just one number on a chart.
For people with renovascular hypertension, where the kidneys may play a role in blood pressure problems, hormone balance can matter too. Michael helps sort through the picture and aims to coordinate care around what is safest and most likely to help.
In terms of background, his medical education and ongoing learning centre on endocrine care, including hormone testing and treatment decisions for adrenal-related conditions. He stays focused on everyday outcomes, like improving blood pressure control, addressing low potassium, and reducing the impact symptoms have on life.
This profile does not list specific research projects or clinical trials. If that matters for your situation, it’s best to ask during your appointment so the team can point you to the most current options.
Overall, Michael Stowasser’s goal is simple: help patients understand their hormone health, make clear choices, and get the right follow-up over time.
