Individual Health Choice

Meaning

Individual Health Choice is the fundamental right and inherent responsibility of a patient to make fully informed, autonomous decisions regarding their own medical treatment, preventative strategies, and overall wellness path, especially concerning elective or lifestyle-related hormonal interventions. This principle legally requires clinicians to provide transparent, comprehensive, and evidence-based education regarding all risks, benefits, and alternatives to facilitate true shared decision-making. It underscores the patient’s ultimate sovereignty and agency in their personal health journey.
