I'm also attaching a spreadsheet that displays the term request in a different format. NTR - prophylactic hormone treatment.xlsx
Parts 2 & 3 of the definition may be too expansive. Possibly reduce to part 1 only?
A prophylactic treatment that has as occurrent part some administering of a drug product that either (1) contains some hormone as active ingredient, (2) regulates the production of some hormone, or (3) regulates some action of some hormone.
Split the term into 3. Alternative term: adjuvant hormone treatment not synonymous.
