Dr. Sweta Budyal is a Senior Consultant in Endocrinology at Fortis Hospital Mulund, Mumbai. She specialises in the assessment and management of hormonal and metabolic disorders, including diabetes, pituitary diseases, osteoporosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, parathyroid disorders and adrenal conditions. Her professional training includes endocrinology and bariatric medicine.
Dr. Budyal completed her MBBS from Lokmanya Tilak Municipal Medical College, Sion, Mumbai, in 2006. She obtained her DM in Endocrinology from Seth G. S. Medical College and KEM Hospital, Mumbai, in 2013. She subsequently completed a Fellowship in Bariatric Medicine at the University of Ottawa, Canada, in 2016. Fortis also lists an MD among her academic qualifications.
Endocrinology focuses on conditions involving hormones produced by organs such as the thyroid, pancreas, pituitary gland, adrenal glands and parathyroid glands. Hormonal disorders can affect metabolism, blood glucose, body weight, growth, reproductive health and bone strength. Endocrine assessment often involves clinical examination, laboratory investigations and imaging where appropriate.
Dr. Budyal's documented clinical expertise includes polycystic ovary syndrome and osteoporosis. PCOS may be associated with irregular menstruation, increased androgen levels and metabolic concerns, while osteoporosis reduces bone strength and increases fracture risk. Individualised treatment considers symptoms, medical history, diagnostic test results and associated health conditions.
She also has specialist expertise relevant to pituitary, parathyroid and adrenal disorders. These glands regulate important body functions, including calcium balance, stress responses and several hormonal pathways. Conditions affecting their function may require hormone testing, targeted imaging, medication or multidisciplinary specialist care.
Her fellowship training in bariatric medicine contributes to her background in obesity and metabolic health. Patients seeking evaluation for diabetes, hormonal imbalance, PCOS, osteoporosis or other endocrine conditions can enquire about consultations with Dr. Sweta Budyal at Fortis Hospital Mulund, Mumbai. Appropriate treatment depends on the individual diagnosis and clinical assessment.
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic condition characterised by elevated blood glucose levels. Management includes determining the type of diabetes, assessing complications and selecting appropriate treatment. Care may involve nutrition, physical activity, glucose monitoring and medicines, including insulin when indicated. Long-term monitoring helps reduce the risk of complications affecting the kidneys, eyes, nerves and cardiovascular system.
Type 1 diabetes occurs when the body's immune system damages insulin-producing pancreatic cells, leading to insulin deficiency. Treatment requires insulin replacement, regular glucose monitoring and education about nutrition, physical activity and prevention of hypoglycaemia. Individualised management may include continuous glucose monitoring or insulin delivery technologies.
Type 2 diabetes develops when the body cannot use insulin effectively or produce enough insulin to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Treatment commonly includes lifestyle measures and glucose-lowering medicines. Management also involves assessing cardiovascular risk, kidney health and other complications, with treatment adjusted according to individual needs.
Thyroid disorders affect the production or action of thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism and several body functions. Assessment may involve thyroid function tests, examination and imaging when appropriate. Treatment depends on whether the thyroid is underactive, overactive, enlarged or affected by another condition.
Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces insufficient thyroid hormone. Symptoms may include tiredness, constipation, cold intolerance and weight changes. Diagnosis is based on thyroid function testing and clinical assessment. Treatment usually involves thyroid hormone replacement, with dose adjustments guided by laboratory results and individual factors.
Hyperthyroidism results from excessive thyroid hormone production and may cause palpitations, weight loss, tremors, sweating or anxiety. Evaluation includes thyroid blood tests and additional investigations when required. Treatment options may include medicines, radioactive iodine or surgery, depending on the cause, severity and patient circumstances.
Polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormonal and metabolic condition that may cause irregular periods, acne, increased facial or body hair and fertility-related concerns. Assessment considers clinical symptoms and appropriate hormonal and metabolic investigations. Management may involve lifestyle changes, medicines and reproductive health support according to the patient's needs.
The pituitary gland produces hormones that regulate growth, reproduction, thyroid function and adrenal activity. Pituitary disorders can cause hormone excess or deficiency and may sometimes involve structural abnormalities. Assessment can require specialised hormone testing and MRI imaging. Treatment depends on the underlying condition and may involve medication, surgery or hormone replacement.
Adrenal disorders affect glands that produce hormones involved in stress responses, blood pressure and metabolism. Conditions may involve excess or insufficient hormone production. Evaluation includes clinical examination, targeted hormone testing and imaging when indicated. Management may require medication, hormone replacement or referral for surgical assessment.
The parathyroid glands regulate blood calcium levels through parathyroid hormone. Disorders may cause abnormal calcium levels, kidney stones or bone-related complications. Assessment commonly includes blood calcium, parathyroid hormone and kidney function tests. Treatment depends on the diagnosis and may involve monitoring, medicines or surgery in selected cases.
Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones become weaker and more susceptible to fractures. Evaluation considers age, fracture history, risk factors and bone mineral density testing. Treatment may include exercise, nutritional measures, fall prevention and medicines that improve bone strength or reduce fracture risk.
Metabolic bone diseases affect bone strength, mineralisation or turnover and may be linked to vitamin D deficiency, parathyroid disorders or other metabolic conditions. Evaluation can include bone density testing and blood investigations involving calcium, phosphate and related hormones. Management focuses on correcting the underlying disorder.
Obesity is a chronic condition influenced by biological, environmental and behavioural factors. Medical weight management includes assessing metabolic health, associated diseases and previous treatment history. Care may involve nutrition, physical activity, behavioural support and approved medications when appropriate. Treatment goals should prioritise sustainable health improvement.
Bariatric medicine focuses on the medical assessment and management of obesity and related metabolic conditions. Evaluation considers body weight, diabetes risk, cardiovascular health and other complications. Treatment may involve structured lifestyle interventions, medications or referral for bariatric surgery assessment when clinically indicated.
Hormonal imbalance is a broad term describing abnormal levels or effects of hormones. Symptoms may affect metabolism, menstruation, energy levels, body weight or other functions. Assessment requires identifying the specific hormone system involved through medical history, examination and targeted investigations. Treatment depends on the confirmed endocrine disorder.
