During a physical assessment, a client was diagnosed with increased temperature due to an increased basal metabolic rate (bmr). which hormonal imbalances may the client have?

The patient may have imbalance of the Thyroxine hormone, which is produced by the thyroid glands. It is known to have a significant effect of basal metabolic rates, as they stimulate the metabolic functions of tissues all over the body. An excess of thyroxine may cause BMR to spike up. This is most commonly seen in women after they have reached menopause. Women nearing menopause may also experience increased basal metabolic rate.
