There is a well-established relationship between alterations of various hormonal systems and psychiatric disorders, both in endocrine and psychiatric patients. This has led to clinical and research studies examining the efficacy of the different hormones for treatment of depression. These data will be reviewed with particular regard to the thyroid, gonadal, pineal, and adrenal cortex hormones. The data generally provide limited, but varying evidence for the antidepressant efficacy of these hormones.
在内分泌患者和精神科患者中,各种激素系统的改变与精神障碍之间存在着已被充分证实的关系。这引发了临床和研究性试验,以检验不同激素治疗抑郁症的疗效。将特别针对甲状腺、性腺、松果体和肾上腺皮质激素对这些数据进行综述。这些数据总体上为这些激素的抗抑郁疗效提供了有限但各不相同的证据。
