North America has a significant population of companion animals, including dogs, cats, and other pets. Thus, the North America region acquired 39% revenue share in the market 2023. The high prevalence of pets in households contributes to a larger pool of potential patients requiring specialized veterinary care, including endocrinology services. Pets in North America are often considered family members, leading to greater investments in their health and well-being. Pet owners prioritize preventive healthcare, advanced diagnostics, and specialized treatments, including veterinary endocrinology, to ensure their pets lead healthy and comfortable lives.
There’s growing awareness among pet owners and veterinarians about various endocrine disorders that affect animals, such as diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, adrenal gland disorders, and reproductive hormone imbalances. This awareness leads to more animals being diagnosed and treated for these conditions.
Additionally, the global pet population, including dogs, cats, and exotic pets, continues to increase. This demographic trend directly correlates with a higher incidence of pet health issues, including endocrine disorders such as diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, and adrenal gland disorders. Therefore, increasing pet ownership and expenditures on pet healthcare drive the market's growth.
However, veterinary diagnostics and treatments for endocrine disorders can be expensive, especially when multiple diagnostic tests, specialized imaging studies, and ongoing treatment regimens are required. This can create financial constraints for pet owners, leading to hesitation or delay in seeking veterinary care. Thus, the high cost of diagnostic and treatment procedures impedes growth.
