Hypogonadal Mitigation through Sleep

Meaning

This clinical strategy focuses on leveraging optimized sleep architecture, duration, and timing to naturally improve or normalize the function of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal (HPG) axis, thereby mitigating the symptoms of hypogonadism, or low gonadal hormone production. It recognizes restorative sleep as a primary, non-pharmacological regulator of endogenous sex steroid synthesis, especially testosterone. Prioritizing sleep is a foundational intervention for hormonal restoration.
