The significance of hormones in the treatment of kidney disease
Most of the primary kidney disease, renal cell damage have immune and inflammatory response factors, and this is often the cause of urine protein, occult blood.
The so-called immuno-inflammatory reaction, the popular term is the appearance of foreign bodies (immune complexes) in the kidneys, and the immune cells of the kidney itself fight against these foreign bodies. This battle is an immune and inflammatory response.
As a result of the fighting, it is still difficult to say whether foreign bodies have been cleaned up, but the kidneys will certainly be destroyed as a battlefield.
The role of hormones is to suppress immunity, which is to stop the parties from continuing to fight. Just like maintaining the military, let the two parties remain calm.
After the fighting is over, the remaining kidney cells will start working again and it will look like kidney disease has been cured.
Why hormone remission is easy to relapse?
In fact, the kidney itself secretes hormones, so the peacekeeping forces were originally sent by the kidneys. However, as the damage to the kidneys worsens, fewer and fewer hormones are secreted from the kidneys and it is necessary to supplement them with drugs.
Hormone decrements, first, to prevent or alleviate various adverse reactions (such as full moon face), the second is to help the kidneys regain their secretory function.
With the reduction of hormones, the concentration of hormones in the blood also decreases. After the brain detects this condition, it will urge the kidneys to increase the secretion of hormones. When the hormone secretion of the kidneys returns to normal, the effect of hormone therapy is complete. Reached.
Common Misconceptions of Using Hormones
1, reduce the drug by yourself
Each doctor has a unique set of drug-reduction programs. This is based on their own years of clinical practice and is actually an exploration of the speed at which the kidneys secrete their hormones.
Therefore, please follow the doctor's instructions and do not reduce your own medicine.
2, abrupt withdrawal
After the urine protein turns negative, do you not need to eat hormone?
After reading this article, you will know that in order to maintain the stability of the hormone concentration in the blood, please do not stop the drug abruptly. Even if the urine protein turns negative, you should continue to reduce it as required.
