European Hormone Day
Hormones play a major role in many prevalent chronic diseases (such as cancer and diabetes) and over 400 rare diseases, which affect millions of people in Europe.
While we need policymakers to lay the groundwork for better prevention, diagnosis and treatment, there are steps we can all take to improve our hormone health. This was the focus for European Hormone Day 2024.
Thank you to everyone who joined in. Watch the video to see the highlights >>
We encourage you to use the hashtag #BecauseHormonesMatter on any endocrine-related awareness days so we can continue to draw attention to endocrine health and disease in Europe and beyond. Key dates for your diary are in the Awareness Days Online Diary (you can add your awareness day, too).
You can still download materials from last year's European Hormone Day public outreach toolkit to support your awareness-raising activities. This includes infographics, posters, videos and social media graphics that can be used any time to support your awareness-raising activities. Key materials are available in 15 languages.
After three successful years of raising awareness of the importance of good hormone health through European Hormone Day, 2025 marks the first-ever World Hormone Day.
Join us on 24 April 2025 to raise awareness of the importance of good hormone health. Find out how to take part and help spread the word about the small steps we can all take towards better hormone health. Resources and workshops to support your activities will be available soon!
