Strategic Hormone Dosing

Meaning

Strategic hormone dosing is a clinical methodology that involves the deliberate, individualized planning and timing of hormone administration to mimic the body’s natural physiological rhythms, known as chronobiology, or to achieve a specific therapeutic goal with minimal side effects. This sophisticated approach goes beyond standard fixed-dose protocols, often incorporating adjustments based on diurnal variation, weekly cycles, or specific physiological needs. The goal is to maximize the therapeutic benefit, such as anabolic effects or mood stabilization, while minimizing the risk of receptor desensitization or supraphysiological peaks.
