Risk Mitigation

Meaning

Risk Mitigation is a proactive clinical and procedural strategy that involves the systematic process of identifying, rigorously assessing, and diligently implementing measures to significantly reduce the probability and/or the magnitude of potential adverse outcomes associated with a therapeutic intervention or an existing disease state. In the specialized context of hormonal health, this practice means actively minimizing the likelihood of side effects, complications, or long-term risks related to hormone therapy or chronic endocrine imbalance. A proactive, systematic approach to risk mitigation is a fundamental component of ethical, responsible, and evidence-based patient care.
