Interventional Endocrinology
Signs and symptoms of aging frequently correspond to subtle
and insidious decreases in any number of hormones that regulate our
functioning.
When to intervene has always been at the center of
intellectual discussions. In our present
“illness” model of medicine we usually wait until
there is a definitive medical condition that puts the
patient’s quality of life at risk before action is taken. What has been
proposed is a wellness
or proactive model
that attempts to recognize not only the subtle changes in laboratory findings
but the patient’s complaints that signify the onset
of the process that leads to a diminished quality of
health.
