A member asked:
Is it possible to get hormones administered according to your circadian rhythm, or will more research have to be done first?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Circadian rhythm: Some hormones certainly are circadian. Cortisol in particular, which is why hydrocortisone replacement is usually a higher AM dose, and don't take the PM dose too late (may keep you up). GH and T are also circadian, but it is impractical to mimic the rhythm, and I am not aware of data that it matters. Thyroid is not circadian.
