Abstract
Sports endocrinology holds a unique importance in understanding and optimizing an active and healthy lifestyle. Active patients with diabetes will need to consider modifying medications, especially insulin. The use of the dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and Fracture Risk Assessment Tool scores is important as both initiate and monitor bone health treatment. Menstrual disorders and energy imbalances are some special concerns when treating female athletes, calling for a multidisciplinary treatment team. Performance agents are popular and have made their way into recreational sports.
