Hormone Replacement Therapy
Life in Balance
Low Testosterone Houston
Our goal is to help you begin feeling as well as you did in your 20’s and 30’s, before your natural testosterone levels began to decrease. In order to accomplish this goal we use a bio-identical hormone replacement therapy to optimize and regulate your testosterone levels as well as several other hormones. Since the hormones we use occur naturally in your body, it greatly reduces many of the adverse side effects commonly associated with synthetic therapies.
To begin treatment, we need three things need to occur. First, we need lab-work from you. This will help understand your current testosterone levels and ensure we get the initial dosing correct. It will also help us identify anything else that might be going on. Secondly, we will need a completed intake form with our informed consent. This will help us understand your health history, your current symptoms and a few lifestyle considerations and goals that will also assist us in determining the best course of action. Lastly, we bring it all together in the consultation with one of our providers. This is the point where it all comes together. The lab-work, coupled with the information from the intake will guide the practitioner in asking the right questions to make absolutely sure that we get you off on the right foot as quickly as possible with your initial prescription. Our approach saves you time and money by ensuring we eliminate as much trial and error as possible.

Menopause isn’t for the weak or the faint of heart. It’s a life altering change that affects women in every aspect of their life. Emotional changes, unwanted weight gain, loss of lean muschel, loss of energy and motivation, sleep problems such as night sweats and insomnia, depression like symptoms, lack of libido, painful intercourse are just a few of the potential symptoms of the change in the hormonal health that all women inevitably experience.
These changes shouldn’t be looked at as “just a part of getting old.” These are symptoms that can be avoided with the right practitioner, protocols and bio-identical hormone replacement therapies. Our practitioners are highly specialized in the vast array of female hormones and can prescribe hormone replacement therapies consisting of the appropriate levels and combinations of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and more. These therapies MUST be implemented on an individual basis. There are no “one size fits all” hormone therapies because every woman is so different from the next.
Call us today to get started. It’s as simple as a blood test and a consultation with one of our providers. The startup process is very inexpensive and very quick
Human Growth Hormone
The HGH peptide market is an ever changing world. Peptides such as Sermorelin, GHRP-2, GHRP-6, and others have been incredibly popular in the past. Things have changed though. Now we have some new players to the game that are revolutionizing the entire philosophy around managing patients who are interested in optimizing their overall health without compromising it at the same time with unwanted side effects.
First of all, let’s examine what a peptide (in the HGH) sense actually us. It is a synthetic protein structure that mimics our bodies precursor hormones to HGH. There are several hormonal mechanisms that activate the pituitary to make HGH. Two of the primary ones are Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) and Ghrelin. Ghrelin is a hunger hormone that stimulates a person to eat. This fires off HGH production to maximize protein synthesis and other metabolic operations to take full advantage of the processing of the food taken in. GHRH is a different hormone that also stimulates the pituitary to produce HGH
