Androgenic Status Mapping

Meaning

Androgenic Status Mapping is the clinical process of precisely assessing the comprehensive profile of androgenic hormones, their active metabolites, and their binding globulins to determine the net biological effect at the tissue level. This detailed evaluation extends beyond basic total hormone measurements, providing a clear picture of free hormone availability and the functional activity of key enzymes like 5-alpha reductase and aromatase. The resulting map is crucial for understanding an individual’s unique hormonal influence on muscle maintenance, bone density, libido, and mood regulation. Understanding this specific status allows for personalized interventions aimed at optimizing the body’s response to these vital steroid hormones.
