If you lack energy, feel “off,” think you have low testosterone (low T), are pre/peri/post-menopausal, or want to optimize your body, your hormones may be the key. At Renewal Aesthetics & Sexual Wellness, Dr. Kat Lofley, NP follows the Rouzier treatment philosophy, which focuses on treating symptoms rather than relying solely on lab values deemed “normal.” For instance, “normal” testosterone levels for men range from 200 to 1300, which is a vast range. We find that most men feel their best with the physiological levels of a 25-year-old.
However, it’s not just about testosterone. Estrogen, progesterone, vitamin D, DHEA-S, cortisol, thyroid, and other hormones can also play significant roles for both men and women. We will discuss your specific symptoms and determine which lab tests are necessary. We will determine the best course of action to meet your specific needs based on the results. Treatment options include pellets, injections, creams, and supplements. We exclusively prescribe bioidentical hormones, as these are more efficiently recognized and utilized by the body than synthetic versions.
Pellets are a time-released version of testosterone or estrogen. They are placed in the fatty tissue of the buttocks and provide a steady release of hormones. Once your body’s reserves are filled, the effects typically last 3-6 months.
