Tennessee's premier provides comprehensive care focused on sustainable health, wellbeing, and longevity for both women and men. Our experienced medical team utilizes advanced diagnostic testing and precision hormone therapy to target the root causes of symptoms and customize treatment plans to help patients look and feel their best at any age.

Why Hormones Matter for Health

Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA play a vital role in regulating every system and bodily process. When levels decline due to aging, stress, poor lifestyle habits, or other issues, patients may experience:

  • Loss of stamina, productivity, and mental sharpness
  • Increased fat gain and muscular atrophy
  • Reduced libido, sexual function, and fertility
  • Accelerated aging, disease risk, and mortality

Optimizing hormones isn't just about looking better or enhancing the bedroom - it's essential for achieving true wellness by:

  • Protecting metabolic, cognitive, bone, heart, and immune health
  • Reducing inflammation linked to chronic disease
  • Improving stress resilience and emotional well-being

Timely treatment can help both women and men prevent decline, address troublesome symptoms, and live life to the fullest. Our clinic provides safe, effective hormone therapy tailored to your unique needs.

Our Services

Diagnosing Hormone Imbalances

The first step is accurately assessing individual hormone levels through panels such as:

  • Estrogen - estrone (E1), estradiol (E2), estriol (E3)
  • Progesterone
  • Testosterone - total and free
  • DHEA-S
  • Thyroid (T3, T4)
  • Cortisol
  • Vitamin D
  • Blood panels & markers (cholesterol, HbA1c, etc.)

Testing is quick and easy, providing objective data to identify deficiencies or excesses driving symptoms. Follow-up testing allows for continually optimizing and adjusting treatment as needed.

Table 1. Common Symptoms of Hormone Imbalances

Women Men
Hot flashes, night sweats Declining muscle mass
Vaginal dryness Loss of strength and stamina
Bladder issues Brain fog, poor concentration
Trouble sleeping Increased body fat
Anxiety, depression Low motivation, drive
Loss of desire/arousal Reduced libido

Our clinic partners with accredited national labs, providing convenient local draws or coordinated mobile phlebotomy services. We utilize cutting-edge analysis identifying issues standard tests may miss.

Women

- Estrogen creams, patches, pellets - Progesterone capsules, injections - Testosterone/DHEA pellets, gels, creams - Thyroid medications

Men

- Testosterone injections, gels, pellets - Human growth hormone - Thyroid medications - Supplements to support production

Monitored hormone therapy provides a range of benefits:

Ongoing follow-up testing allows for continually adjusting dosages to maintain optimal levels long-term. We also provide nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle guidance essential for getting the most out of treatment.

Starting Hormone Replacement Therapy

Beginning hormone therapy is a safe, convenient process. We guide patients through every step:

  1. Comprehensive evaluation of health history, labs, symptoms, needs.
  2. Creating a customized treatment plan - medications, delivery methods, lifestyle support.
  3. Follow-up testing ensures optimal levels. Adjust dosages as needed.
  4. Ongoing monitoring and support for the best results long-term.

Hormone therapy can produce dramatic improvements in energy, appearance, and vitality. However, outcomes depend greatly on the expertise and attentiveness of the supervising practitioner.

Our clinic founder, Dr. Sarah Johnson, is a national leader in precision regenerative medicine with over 25 years of experience restoring health and vitality through hormone optimization, cellular therapies, and genomics.

Biology of Aging: The Role of Hormones

Growing understanding of the biology of aging reveals hormones play a key role in determining disease risk and lifespan.

As early as age 30, most adults see testosterone levels decline by 1% per year. Growth hormone production may fall by up to 14% annually. These hormones stimulate tissue repair, enhance cognition, maintain lean body mass, mobilize fat stores, and more - preserving health and function throughout life.

Emerging research shows maintaining youthful hormone balance throughout adulthood can:

  • Slow onset of disease - Optimizing hormone levels reduces factors driving chronic inflammation underlying conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
  • Protect brain health - Age-related hormone decline parallels reduced cognitive function and elevated dementia risk. Normalizing levels enhances memory, focus, and neural connectivity.
  • Strengthen resilience - Balanced hormones enhance physiological reserves protecting against stressors.
  • Extend healthspan - Studies associate sufficient testosterone and growth hormone levels with increased life expectancy.

Table 3. Impact of 10 Year Increase in Hormone Levels

| Testosterone | Growth Hormone | |-|-| 8% drop in heart disease deaths | 14% reduced risk of heart attack | 15% reduced diabetes risk | 7% drop in stroke risk | 23% lower Alzheimer's risk | 75% reduction in diabetes death risk | | 10% drop in all-cause mortality | 6.5 year increased life expectancy |

Supporting healthy hormone balance across adulthood allows both women and men to look and feel their best while reducing disease burden and extending longevity. Our integrative protocols incorporate testing, hormone optimization, nutrition, and lifestyle guidance designed to help patients achieve sustainable wellness.

Mental Health and Hormone Balance

Hormones like estrogen, testosterone, and thyroid play an important role in emotional health and cognitive function. Declining levels frequently seen with aging or chronic stress have been associated with:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Mood disorders
  • Dementia risk
  • Reduced quality of life

Restoring balance through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can elevate mood, ease anxiety, heighten motivation, and protect long-term mental function.

For example, testosterone acts directly and indirectly on brain pathways regulating emotion. Low levels reduce activity in areas modulating fear and aggression response. Normalizing testosterone can improve coping with stressors and emotional regulation in men.

Likewise, estrogen supports the production of key neurotransmitters like serotonin influencing mood and cognition. Post-menopause when estrogen production declines, women face increased depression vulnerability.

Balancing hormone levels enhances resilience and emotional health, allowing patients to get the most out of life. Our integrative treatment plans help both women and men feel their best physically and mentally.

Libido, Sexual Function, and Hormone Optimization

Hormones are intrinsically tied to healthy sexual desire and performance for both sexes. Declining testosterone, estrogen, and other key hormones lead to symptoms like:

  • Reduced libido
  • Difficulty becoming aroused
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Vaginal dryness and discomfort
  • Less satisfying orgasms
  • Low drive and pleasure

However, restoring one's unique optimal balance makes intimacy enjoyable again through enhancing:

  • Nitric oxide production - improves blood flow
  • Sensation thresholds - heightened pleasure
  • Sex drive pathways - elevates motivation
  • Confidence and body image

While anti-depressants may dampen sexuality, balancing hormone levels frequently improves libido and function better than conventional treatments alone.

Our clinic helps patients address frustrations in the bedroom by targeting the physiological roots of sexual issues. We provide science-based hormone testing and treatment plans incorporating bioidentical hormones and strategic lifestyle changes tailored to your needs.
