Hormone Refinement

Meaning

Hormone refinement is a specialized clinical strategy focused on optimizing the metabolism, clearance, and ratio of active and inactive metabolites of endogenous or administered hormones, moving beyond simple concentration measurements. This approach ensures that hormones are not only present at adequate levels but are also processed through beneficial metabolic pathways, minimizing the formation of potentially adverse byproducts. It is a precision step in advanced hormonal therapy.
