Neuroprotective Hormone Therapy

Meaning

Neuroprotective Hormone Therapy is a specialized clinical approach utilizing specific hormones, often bioidentical, at physiological or optimized doses to actively shield neurons from damage, slow neurodegeneration, and support brain structure and function. This therapy recognizes the critical role of endogenous hormones, such as progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone, as neurosteroids that modulate synaptic plasticity, reduce oxidative stress, and regulate inflammatory responses in the central nervous system. The goal is to preserve cognitive reserve and reduce the risk of age-related neurological decline.
