This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.
The synthetic hormones market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.38 billion in 2024 to $6.77 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to animal growth promotion, performance enhancement, environmental impact, fertility treatments and menopausal symptom management.
The synthetic hormones market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $8.15 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of the transgender healthcare market, growing healthcare expenditure and insurance coverage, regulatory approvals, and expanding applications of synthetic hormones. Major trends in the forecast period include rise of plant-based hormone therapy, integration of hormone therapy in anti-aging treatments, technological advancements in drug delivery, and focus on hormone-free birth control.
The synthetic hormones market is expected to experience growth due to the increasing incidence of hormonal imbalances. Hormonal imbalances occur when there is an excess or deficiency of hormones in the bloodstream, often caused by factors such as stress, aging, medical conditions, or lifestyle choices, disrupting the body's hormone production and regulation. Synthetic hormones are utilized to supplement or replace natural hormones in such cases, aiding in regulating bodily functions and alleviating symptoms associated with imbalances. For example, in 2022, the NHS Business Services Authority reported a 35% increase in prescribed hormone replacement therapy (HRT) items in England, reaching approximately 7.8 million. Thus, the rising incidence of hormonal imbalances is fueling the growth of the synthetic hormones market.
Key players in the synthetic hormone market are concentrating on developing innovative products such as recombinant human growth hormone to enhance market profitability. Recombinant human growth hormone is a synthetic hormone used to address growth hormone deficiency in both children and adults, as well as certain medical conditions linked to growth hormone deficiency. For instance, Pfizer Inc. and OPKO Health Inc. obtained marketing authorization for once-weekly NGENLA (somatrogon) injections in the European Union in February 2022. These injections are designed to treat pediatric growth hormone deficiency in children and adolescents aged at least three years. NGENLA, administered subcutaneously, provides a longer-lasting alternative to daily growth hormone injections, thereby addressing growth disturbances due to insufficient growth hormone secretion more effectively.
In November 2023, Aspen Pharmacare Holdings Limited acquired Sandoz's Chinese business for $100 million, expanding its presence and capabilities in China's pharmaceutical market.

They are used in medical treatments to regulate various physiological processes or to replace hormones that the body may not produce in sufficient quantities.
The main types of synthetic hormones include steroid hormones, peptide hormones, amino acid derivatives, and others. Steroid hormones are a class of hormones derived from cholesterol and are characterized by their structure, which includes four interconnected carbon rings. They can be administered via various routes such as oral, nasal, topical, and intravenous administration. Various applications of synthetic hormones include treating conditions such as growth hormone deficiency, thyroid hormone deficiency, menopause, male hypogonadism, and others. These hormones are utilized by various end users including hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies.
