Brain Performance Hormones

Meaning

Brain Performance Hormones is a clinical descriptor for the specific subset of endocrine signaling molecules that exert a profound, direct influence on cognitive function, mood, and neuroplasticity. This group includes key steroids like estrogen and testosterone, thyroid hormones, and neurohormones such as cortisol and DHEA. Their balanced action is essential for maintaining optimal executive function, memory consolidation, and stress resilience. Dysregulation of these hormones can lead directly to cognitive decline or mood disturbances, highlighting their critical role in the central nervous system.
