Hormonal Imbalance Smokers

Meaning

Hormonal imbalance in smokers describes the constellation of endocrine dysfunctions frequently observed in individuals due to chronic exposure to tobacco’s complex mixture of toxins. This clinical state is characterized by deviations from optimal physiological hormone concentrations and signaling, including compromised thyroid function, altered sex steroid metabolism, and persistent HPA axis dysregulation. The resulting imbalance contributes significantly to adverse health outcomes such as reduced fertility, accelerated bone loss, and diminished metabolic health. It is a direct physiological consequence of systemic toxicological insult.
