Systemic Effects

Meaning

Systemic Effects refer to the widespread physiological consequences or influences that an intervention, condition, or substance has throughout the entire body, affecting multiple organ systems simultaneously. Unlike localized effects, a systemic effect is distributed via the circulation or the nervous system, impacting distant tissues and functions. In the context of hormonal health, a single hormone imbalance or therapeutic agent often produces profound systemic effects, necessitating a holistic view of clinical management.
