An integrative clinical specialty that investigates and addresses the root causes of endocrine dysfunction by viewing hormone systems within the context of interconnected physiological networks.
Origin
This approach synthesizes traditional endocrinology principles with the systems-oriented diagnostic framework characteristic of Functional Medicine.
Mechanism
Practitioners focus on upstream modulators like gut health, nutrient sufficiency, and chronic stress impact on the HPA and HPT axes, aiming for comprehensive hormonal balance rather than symptom management alone.
