When your hormones are out of balance, it can feel like you’ve lost touch with yourself. Hormones impact far more than your physical health. They also shape your energy, focus, mood, and motivation.

If you used to identify as a go-getter, but are currently struggling with lack of motivvation and feeeling like you're just going through the motions of life, transformation is possible with BHRT. By restoring your hormones to optimal levels, many of our patients notice life-changing improvements often within just a few weeks of their first placement.

GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy have been praised for rapid weight loss, but what do they really do to your hormones? Learn how these medications impact your hormones, metabolism, and overall health, and why restoring balance is a better path forward.

In the past two years, Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have been called “miracle weight-loss drugs.” But what’s missing from the headlines is the full picture of what these medications do to your hormones and the long-term cost to your health.

Breast cancer rates are rising again, especially in women under 50. Research points to lifestyle factors like endocrine disruptors in our food, water, cleaning supplies, and beauty supplies, hormonal imbalances, obesity, lower physical activity, and alcohol use.

Hormones also play a major role. That’s why supporting healthy hormone balance and making intentional lifestyle choices matter for long-term prevention and better outcomes. "By age 40, women have reduced their production of T by 50% and mostly are T-deficient." Studies show that there is an 80% reduction in breast cancer (among other cancers) when Vitamin D levels are above ~60. Further, testosterone pellets have been shown to have breast protective effects.

Struggling to fall and stay asleep?

Conventional medicine says:
“It’s just insomnia. Try a sleeping pill.”

We say:
“Let’s see if your hormones are the missing piece.”

Balanced hormones play a key role in regulating healthy sleep cycles. When they're out of balance, it’s harder to fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up feeling rested. Sleep aids are a quick fix, but the consequence is that they often create much bigger problems. They don't fix the root cause of insomnia. They're actually linked to memory loss, depression, and even dementia.

Sleep is a crucial driver of bodily function, affecting energy, mood, immunity, and long-term health. For many of our patients, restoring hormone balance can make a life-changing difference. Without sleep, our bodies will not be optimal in how we function and how we feel. During sleep, our bodies restore and repair all systems.

You deserve more than a quick fix. You deserve care that looks deeper, finds the root cause, and helps you get back to the best version of you.

When it comes to BHRT, it’s not just about building muscle and physical health. The mental and emotional changes experienced after BHRT are just as life-changing!

Your hormones control hundreds of functions in your body, and when they are brought into balance, your energy, sleep, mood, and focus are all restored. Patients often share that they experience more mental clarity, more stable moods, and less anxiety. After restoring balance to your body, BHRT leaves you with increased confidence, energy, and joy.

We’re surrounded by endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) every day in plastics, household products, and even food. Over time, they can disrupt your hormones and leave you feeling tired or foggy. Your hormones control over 500 functions in the body, and when they are out of balance, it's difficult to feel like the best version of yourself.

BHRT helps repair those imbalances and get your body back to where it feels best. Many patients describe it as a true comeback: more energy, brighter moods, clearer thinking, and feeling like themselves again.

True health comes from addressing the root cause. Restoring your hormones to optimal levels provides you with lasting energy, mental clarity, builds muscle, supports insulin sensitivity, reduces inflammation, boosts motivation, improves sleep, and much more, helping you reach your weight goals in a sustainable and natural way.

At first, GLP-1s seem like a quick fix, promising too-good-to-be-true results with minimal effort. It's important to know that, like with any medication, they come with their own dangerous risks. GLP-1s disrupt your digestion, decrease muscle mass, and may further throw your hormones out of balance, creating a domino effect of symptoms we treat every day in our practice. Over 2,000 lawsuits have been filed against Ozempic's manufacturer, Novo Nordisk. Some of the side effects listed in the lawsuits: stomach paralysis, intestinal blockage, vision loss, gallbladder disease, and kidney damage.

When your hormones are working for you, your body doesn’t need shortcuts. It knows how to thrive! Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy is all-natural.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 🩷

You are going to see pink ribbons everywhere - but most of those same companies produce toxins that may increase breast cancer. Prevention matters. Hormones in optimal ranges are very protective against breast cancer. Removing toxins is critical in helping prevent breast cancer.

A 2023 study found that reducing exposure to xenoestrogens (chemicals that mimic estrogen) can reverse cancer-associated changes in breast tissue (Dairkee et al., 2023). Just after 28 days (!!), the breast tissue normalized, which shows how our bodies can heal, protect, and prevent when reducing our toxin exposure.

Research shows that synthetic progesterone (like MPA in some birth control) can raise risk, while natural progesterone may actually reduce it.

Ways to reduce toxins: clean beauty products - start with deodorant and toothpaste, clean cleaning supplies (we love Branch Basic Basics), throw out any scented products, focus on whole foods, and minimize processed food and alcohol consumption.

This month, we’re spreading awareness regarding prevention. Hormone balance, lifestyle, and environment all play a role in whether cancer cells stay dormant or become active.

Fatigue, brain fog, lack of motivation, and trouble sleeping.

Too often, these symptoms are brushed off as “stress,” “aging,” or even depression. But in many cases, the real culprit is a hidden hormone imbalance that gets overlooked.
