HORMONE THERAPY IN DRAPER, UTAH

HORMONES ARE A MEDICAL DECISION

Hormone replacement is one of the more consequential things done in this building, and it is treated accordingly. That means baseline laboratory work before anything is prescribed, dosing considered against your individual history rather than a standard protocol, and ongoing monitoring afterwards — not a pellet every few months with no one checking what it is doing.

For women, bioidentical hormone pellet therapy is one route to addressing the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. It is not the only one, and we are careful to say so. Many of the concerns that bring women in — vaginal dryness, discomfort during intimacy, urinary symptoms, tissue thinning — respond well to the hormone-free options in our intimate wellness program. FemiLift and the O-Shot work on tissue directly, which matters a great deal for women with a history of hormone-sensitive cancer or who have been advised against systemic hormone therapy. Sometimes the honest answer is one, sometimes the other, and sometimes both.

For men, testosterone replacement is a decision that deserves the same care. Baseline levels, symptom correlation, fertility considerations, and cardiovascular and prostate history all bear on whether it is appropriate, and monitoring afterwards is not optional. Men who come in primarily about erectile function should also know that ED and low testosterone are not the same problem — and that our drug-free ED program addresses vascular and tissue mechanisms directly rather than through hormones.

Kelly Lance has more than thirty years of clinical medicine behind these conversations. What you will get is a realistic discussion of what hormone therapy can do for your symptoms, what the risks are given your history, what the monitoring commitment involves, and what the alternatives are — before any decision is made.
