What is the Origin of Exogenous Hormone Sequencing?

This concept evolved from traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), moving beyond simple steady-state dosing to embrace the principles of chronopharmacology and physiological endocrinology. Recognizing that hormones are naturally released in specific temporal patterns led to the development of more sophisticated, individualized dosing protocols.

What is the Mechanism of Exogenous Hormone Sequencing?

The mechanism relies on understanding the pharmacokinetics of the administered hormones and the receptor dynamics of target tissues. For instance, mimicking the circadian rhythm of cortisol or the monthly cycle of estradiol and progesterone can improve therapeutic efficacy and reduce side effects by maintaining receptor sensitivity. Strategic sequencing aims to prevent receptor downregulation and support the body's natural feedback loops, thereby enhancing overall treatment success.

Exogenous Hormone Sequencing

Meaning

Exogenous hormone sequencing is the clinical practice of administering external (exogenous) hormones in a precise, non-static pattern designed to mimic or strategically modulate the body’s natural, often pulsatile or cyclical, endocrine rhythms. This therapeutic approach aims to optimize hormonal signaling by controlling the timing and ratio of hormone delivery. Sequencing is particularly relevant in therapies that seek to restore natural diurnal or menstrual cycles.
