Hormone replacement therapy
Men and women both can benefit from the active management of hormones through middle age. What are you waiting for?
Testosterone
Testosterone levels, both in men and women naturally fall as we age. For many, however, the levels decline to a point that they experience decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction (men), fatigue, loss of muscle mass, and changes in mood like irritability or depression. Other potential symptoms include decreased body hair, reduced bone mass, and increased body fat.
For those with low testosterone levels, when appropriate, we treat patients with both injectable and topical forms of testosterone. We also have a busy testosterone pellet practice, utilizing the Biote program. For members, male Biote costs $500 every 5-6 months, female Biote costs $250 every 3-4 months.

Female HRT
Perimenopausal women often benefit from hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT in women received a bad rap a few years ago when a study noted slight increase in the number of cases of certain types of cancer and heart disease. Many experts now believe these risks have been vastly overstated. We believe in a more nuanced approach that recognizes the dramatic benefit that many women experience from HRT.
