Moving from pediatric to adult care for rare hormone conditions
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a program to help young adults with rare hormone or gland conditions move from pediatric to adult medical care. If you are 18 or older and being treated at a pediatric endocrinology clinic, this program may help make your care smoother.
