Optimized Therapeutic Range

Meaning

The Optimized Therapeutic Range is a clinical paradigm that moves beyond standard reference intervals to identify the specific physiological concentration of a hormone or biomarker that correlates with an individual patient’s maximal health and well-being. This personalized range is often higher or more nuanced than the broad laboratory “normal” range, which only reflects a population average. Achieving this optimal range is the central goal of precision hormonal therapy to alleviate symptoms and restore vitality.
