ABOUT THIS SESSION

Join us for an enlightening session with Dr. Sanjay Kalra, who brings a unique perspective to endocrinology by connecting the science of hormones with the many dimensions of human life. Going beyond textbooks and conventional clinical perspectives, he explores how hormonal changes can shape emotions, behaviour, relationships, health, and everyday experiences. With his characteristic blend of scientific insight, clinical wisdom, and relatable storytelling, Dr. Kalra will shed light on fascinating and often overlooked aspects of hormonal health. Tune in for a thought-provoking and engaging conversation that bridges endocrinology, clinical practice, and life beyond the clinic.

Q&A

Hormones are signaling molecules that help different organs and systems in the body communicate with one another. They play an important role in maintaining balance, health, and homeostasis.

Yes. Hormones can also influence social signaling. For example, when an entire community is experiencing stress, stress hormone levels may rise, which can potentially affect overall health and behavior.

A calm and peaceful social environment may help reduce stress hormones. Practices such as yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and spiritual activities may also support hormonal and overall health.

The exposome includes everything we are exposed to in our environment. These exposures may include stress, visual and auditory stimuli, food, chemicals, radiation, and other environmental factors that can influence endocrine and overall health.

Hormonal terms can be used to describe people, places, or societies. For example, describing a city as dopaminergic may suggest that it is active and energetic. The hormonal terminology used can create a particular social meaning or feeling.

The relationship works in both directions. Hormones can influence social behavior, mood, temperament, and attitudes, while social behavior and the surrounding environment can also affect hormonal health.

Laws and regulations can affect areas related to hormonal health, including abortion, contraception, emergency contraception, transgender healthcare, sexual violence, and the treatment of repeated sexual offenders. Hormonal awareness can therefore be important in developing and implementing such regulations.

Yes. This is described as vocabulary therapeutics. The words and terminology we use can influence our own temperament and may also affect the emotional and social environment of those around us.

Children are being exposed to smartphones, screens, and other visual stimuli from an increasingly young age. Excessive screen exposure and visual addiction may influence hormonal growth and overall health.

Maintaining a healthy social and personal environment is important. Reducing stress and harmful exposures, along with healthy lifestyle choices, mindfulness, meditation, physical activity, and balanced nutrition, can support overall hormonal health.
