Managing Mental Health and Hormonal Balance

While most psychiatrists do not spotlight endocrinology, there is no question that one cannot adequately treat anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns without a keen understanding of how hormones affect psychiatric balance. This session will walk through each major hormone, and connect them to neurotransmitter balance, stress response, and relationship to other hormones.

In this lecture, Dr. Perlmutter will explore newer understandings of brain changes implicated in depression with a focus on the immune system.
