Hormonal medications are drugs that contain hormones or affect the body's hormone levels. They are commonly used to treat various conditions, such as hormonal imbalances, menopause symptoms, and thyroid disorders. These medications can help regulate bodily functions, including metabolism, growth, and reproduction. Examples of hormonal medications include birth control pills, which prevent pregnancy by regulating estrogen and progesterone levels, and insulin, which helps manage diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels. While effective, these medications may have side effects and should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
