Testosterone Progesterone Balance

Meaning

Testosterone Progesterone Balance refers to the critical, dynamic equilibrium between these two primary steroid hormones, which is essential for optimal health, mood, and tissue function in both males and females. In women, progesterone primarily balances the proliferative effects of estrogen, while in men, the balance with testosterone influences neurocognitive function and bone health. A disruption in this balance, often seen as a relative deficiency of one hormone, can lead to clinical symptoms ranging from mood instability and sleep disturbances to compromised metabolic health. Precision clinical practice seeks to restore this functional ratio.
