Hormonal Regulation

Meaning

Hormonal regulation is the continuous, self-adjusting process by which the endocrine system controls the production, release, and circulating concentrations of hormones to maintain physiological equilibrium. This intricate control mechanism is essential for coordinating cellular activity, managing energy utilization, responding to stress, and facilitating reproduction across all life stages. Effective regulation ensures that the body’s internal environment remains stable despite constant external and internal fluctuations, supporting overall health.
