Endocrinological Resilience

Meaning

Endocrinological resilience refers to the inherent capacity of the body’s hormonal system to maintain or rapidly return to a state of stable equilibrium (homeostasis) following exposure to significant physiological or psychological stressors, such as acute illness, chronic stress, or intense metabolic demands. A high degree of resilience indicates a robust and adaptable neuroendocrine network, capable of modulating hormone release and receptor sensitivity effectively to preserve overall systemic function and prevent the development of endocrine-related pathologies. This is a critical marker of long-term health and vitality.
