Hormonal Set Point

Meaning

The Hormonal Set Point represents the unique, biologically determined, and dynamically maintained equilibrium concentration of a specific hormone or a cascade of hormones within an individual’s circulatory system, regulated by complex neuroendocrine feedback loops. This set point dictates the baseline functional status of the endocrine system, influencing everything from metabolic rate to mood stability. Deviations from this optimal individual set point are often the root cause of subtle or overt symptoms of hormonal imbalance.
