Help raise hormone awareness

European Hormone Day returns on Wednesday 24 April 2024.

This year, European Hormone Day will focus on increasing public awareness of the vital role hormones play in health and disease. This will build on last year’s Annex to the Milano Declaration, which shared 10 Recommendations for Good Hormone Health EXTERNAL-LINK-ALT. You can help support this work by promoting the small steps everyone can take to improve their hormone health. We hope you’ll join us again to raise awareness of endocrine health – #BecauseHormonesMatter.

To help you spread the word, ESE is providing a public outreach toolkit with social media materials covering endocrine-disrupting chemicals, cancer, obesity and rare endocrine diseases. You can choose whatever themes and activities are most relevant to your community. Translations will be available in 13 languages. We have also updated the Because Hormones Matter leaflet and awareness days calendar that we published in 2023.

Please use the hashtag #BecauseHormonesMatter on European Hormone Day and other awareness days, to boost our collective reach. We’ll be sharing more public-facing information, and celebrating the endocrine community, on our new BecauseHormonesMatter EXTERNAL-LINK-ALT Instagram account. Come and say hello!
