500 _aEndocrine disorders have severe consequences for reproductive health and, overall, the woman’s condition. The role of this research is to establish the level of hormonal imbalance resulting in reproductive and other diseases among women in south Punjab, Pakistan. Thus, the present study has adopted a cross-sectional, observational research design in choosing 430 females from Bahawalpur Victoria hospital. Serum samples were also taken from females and hormonal assays performed on the collected samples in endocrine lab. The collected data were analyzed statistically to compare hormonal levels with health status of the women. The findings of the study were that the common symptoms were fatigue, cravings for food, and the high level of obesity among the participants. Hormonal level was correlated with amenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, type 2 diabetes, and insomnia at the considerable level. Serum levels of CA- 125 and AFP were also raised significantly with ovarian cancer. Some other common manifestations were psychological, such as depression, anxiety, increased, and insomnia. Also, the most frequent reproductive symptoms identified were pain and swelling of the breasts, benign breast diseases, and night sweating. The survey work showed high prevalence of hair loss and hirsutism to above the norms, therefore pointing at dermatological consequences of hormonal disturbances. Another group of marriage-related problems that were also identified were fertility problems which were also common affecting a large percentage of the population. No significant associations were found between hormonal levels and certain conditions such as cardiovascular disease and liver disease. The hormonal testing showed dysregulation in FSH and LH and estrogen and progesterone and thyroid hormones. Women of south Punjab are undergoing hormonal imbalance, which includes reproductive health problems and other health related concerns. Focused education on symptoms, early checkups, and encompassing medical approaches are useful in reducing effects of hormonal fluctuations in this group of ladies.
