Hormonal Cycling Strategies

Meaning

Hormonal Cycling Strategies refer to the clinical or lifestyle-based practice of intentionally modulating the levels or activities of specific hormones in a rhythmic, periodic manner to optimize physiological outcomes or mimic natural endocrine patterns. In women’s health, this often involves aligning nutrient intake, exercise, and supplementation with the natural fluctuations of estrogen and progesterone throughout the menstrual cycle. The principle can also apply to intermittent hormonal support in both sexes, aiming to prevent receptor desensitization and maximize therapeutic benefit. These strategies are employed to enhance fertility, improve body composition, and support mood stability.
