What is the maintenance amount of hormones

The maintenance dose of hormones needs to be judged according to the type of hormone used and the degree of the disease. For example, glucocorticoid 7.5 mg or less is comparable to the physiological dose of human beings, and the maintenance dose of hormone for lupus erythematosus is usually one tablet a day, but if the condition is mild, it can even be one tablet every other day. Too much or too little hormone secretion will cause dysfunction of the body, so the measurement of hormone level can be used as the basis for clinical diagnosis of certain diseases, and many hormones are also made into drugs used in clinical practice. However, the maintenance amount of hormones and the correct dosage of different types of hormones need to be reasonably judged according to the treatment of the disease and the needs of the human body. Therefore, the increase and decrease of hormones need to be under the guidance of a professional physician, and the rational use of medication, both to ensure that the condition is stable, but also to maintain good health.
