Endocrine Biomarkers

Meaning

Endocrine biomarkers are measurable biological indicators found in blood, urine, saliva, or tissue that reflect the activity, status, or pathology of the endocrine system. These markers can include circulating hormones, their metabolites, specific hormone-binding proteins, or receptor expression levels. Clinically, they serve as objective tools for diagnosing endocrine disorders, monitoring treatment efficacy, and assessing risk for future hormonal imbalances. Precision in measurement allows for highly individualized therapeutic strategies in hormonal health.
