Hormonal Status

Meaning

Hormonal Status refers to the current concentration and biological activity of all circulating hormones and their metabolites within an individual’s systemic circulation and target tissues at a specific point in time. This complex profile provides a comprehensive snapshot of the endocrine system’s function, reflecting the dynamic interplay between glandular production, transport protein binding, and peripheral tissue utilization. Assessing hormonal status is the foundational step in diagnosing endocrine disorders and designing personalized hormone therapy.
