Hello all,

I have a patient who is a 25 year old female and a serious athlete (at county level) for sprinting and hurdling.
She was initially referred by her coach, and has presented each month over the past year with a different location of localised muscle pain each time (initially itb, then medial knee on opposite limb, then SIJs, then plantar fascia). She was attending many Physio's who could not improve her symptoms, so I referred her for serology, concluding that the issue may not be biomechanical.
The blood results came back with some remarkable data, so her physician referred her for repeats under the guidance of an endocrinologist. The results show depleted levels of oestrogen and human growth hormone.
I wanted to ask if anyone can help us understand what the implications of this means at a musculoskeletal level please? (I am more aware that changing oestrogen levels in menopausal women can cause hypermobility and make them susceptible to injury, but I have no experience in what low oestrogen coupled with low HGH would mean for a young athlete).
Many thanks in advance
