Possibly adrenal stress could be involved, but you would need to have laboratory tests carried out to confirm this. Adrenal testing is non-invasive as it only involves sending saliva samples to a laboratory.
A specialist in hormone imbalance s is called an endocrinologist but you would normally expect to be referred by a G.P., and I quite understand your unwillingness to go by that route. Your best option might be to find an alternative health clinic where there is a practitioner of functional medicine, or to look up functional medicine practitioners on Google. Our society has seen a sharp increase in complex chronic illnesses which mainstream practitioners are not competent to diagnose or treat. A functional medicine practitioner will focus on all of the fundamental underlying factors (biochemical,nutritional, psychological, etc.) that influence your own personal experiences. If he is not able to carry out all the necessary tests himself he will be aware of the best places to have them done and to refer you elsewhere if appropriate.
