This Endocrine, Reproductive and Menopause-Related Aging session explores endocrine alterations across the lifespan and their role in aging trajectories. Topics include hypothalamic-pituitary axis changes, sex steroid decline, thyroid function, adrenal axis dynamics, and glucose and calcium metabolism in older adults. A substantial focus will be placed on reproductive and menopause-related aging, including symptomatology, cardiovascular and bone consequences, and cognitive and mood effects. The track will address hormone replacement therapy, non-hormonal options, and individualized risk–benefit assessment. Studies on endocrine modulators, chronobiology, and endocrine biomarkers of healthspan are encouraged, along with research integrating endocrine changes with cardiometabolic, musculoskeletal, and brain aging.
