This review explores the intricate relationship between hormonal fluctuations and emotional regulation, emphasizing the critical role of hormones in mood, stress responses, and psychological well-being. By examining key hormones involved in emotional regulation—such as those from the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis, gonadal hormones (estrogen and testosterone), thyroid hormones, oxytocin, and metabolic hormones like insulin, leptin, and ghrelin—we uncover how these biochemical messengers impact emotional states and contribute to mood disorders. The paper discusses methodological challenges and future research directions, highlighting the necessity for interdisciplinary approaches to deepen our understanding of hormonal influences on emotional regulation.
The review underscores the importance of considering hormonal mechanisms in developing targeted treatments for mood disorders, advocating for a holistic perspective that bridges endocrinology and psychology. By integrating current research findings with clinical implications, our objective is to enhance the biological foundation of emotional regulation, paving the way for innovative therapeutic strategies and improved mental health care. This comprehensive overview aims not only to consolidate existing knowledge but also to identify gaps in research, encouraging further exploration into the hormonal underpinnings of emotional states. Through this endeavor, we aspire to contribute to a broader understanding of emotional regulation, offering new perspectives on treating mood disorders and enhancing overall emotional well-being.
