Endocrine Voltage

Meaning

Endocrine voltage is a conceptual term used to describe the overall functional capacity and dynamic responsiveness of the entire endocrine system, representing its ability to generate and sustain optimal hormonal signaling. This metaphor quantifies the system’s “power,” reflecting the collective efficiency of hormone synthesis, receptor sensitivity, metabolic clearance, and feedback loop integrity. A high endocrine voltage suggests robust physiological resilience and optimal hormonal health, while a low voltage indicates systemic fatigue or hypo-functionality. Clinicians use this concept to holistically assess a patient’s neuroendocrine reserve rather than focusing solely on individual hormone concentrations.
