Treatment for Male Menopause and Male Hormone Imbalances
As people get older, they undergo hormonal changes. While everyone knows about menopause and how it affects women, less attention is paid to the male hormone imbalance and menopause or andropause. This condition which is marked by low testosterone levels is underdiagnosed and undertreated.
Low testosterone levels are associated with Type 2 diabetes, abdominal obesity, osteoporosis, inflammatory-related syndromes, and a whole host of cardiovascular diseases. There is an overwhelming volume of clinical data that shows higher levels of testosterone protect against these health issues.
Symptoms of low testosterone include:
- Declining sex drive
- Weak erections
- Decreased motivation
- Reduction in energy levels
- Increased abdominal fat
- Anemia
- Decrease in strength or endurance levels
- Loss of muscle mass
- Deteriorating work performance
- Depression
- Moodiness
At Rejuvenate Men’s Hormone and Wellness Center, we offer state-of-the-art hormone therapy. Optimum levels of testosterone help to:
- Enhance well-being and psychological status
- Increase lean muscle mass
- Increase bone density
- Decrease cholesterol
- Improve skin tone and collagen
- Improve healing
- Improve libido and sexual performance
Types of Hormones We Use
We never use potentially harmful synthetic hormones. Instead, we only use bioidentical hormones. These are extracted from plants and then processed by a compounding pharmacy. They are identical to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) provides the body with the customized hormones it needs to function properly. Our specialists are highly trained in BHRT and they use integrative techniques to help people struggling with hormonal imbalances.
Treatment Options We Offer
BHRT is available in many forms. Our hormone specialists will recommend the option that’s best for you based on your test results and your symptoms. Options include:
- Injectables –Intramuscular injections. You can administer them yourself or have our nurses do it.
- Creams – Most cream-based hormone treatments are applied to the scrotum.
- Pellets – These are small implants that are placed under the skin. We utilize a local anesthetic to make our patients comfortable during the procedure. Each treatment lasts for three to six months.
How We Rebalance Your Hormones
Our hormone replacement therapy services don’t focus on testosterone alone. We want to ensure that all of the hormones in your body are properly optimized. That’s why we’ll also check your dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), thyroid, vitamin D, and cortisol levels to help you bring your body into equilibrium. Let’s take a closer look at these hormones.
DHEA
DHEA is a hormone that is secreted primarily by adrenal glands. It is an endocrine precursor to other hormones. DHEA is an important hormone as it:
- Reduces cardiovascular risks by increasing lipolysis. This decreases visceral fat.
- Stimulates the immune system, boosts sexual vitality, improves moods, and lowers cholesterol and body fat
- Prevents osteoporosis and increases bone density
- Prevents diabetes and heart disease
- Improves memory and increases energy
- Has anti-cancer properties since it enhances the immune system
Thyroid
The thyroid hormone is a metabolic hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It regulates:
- Temperature
- Metabolism
- Cerebral function
- Energy
It protects against:
- Dyslipidemia by reducing visceral fat
- Cardiovascular disease
- Cognitive impairment
- Memory loss
- Fatigue and weight loss
Common symptoms of thyroid deficiency include:
- Thin hair, skin, and nails
- Weakness, coldness, tiredness, and fatigue
- Weight gain and increased body fat
- Loss of energy and motivation
- Loss of cognition and memory
- Depression and poor sense of well-being
- Constipation
We don’t just address the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroxine (T4), but triiodothyronine (T3) which is at the cell level that is responsible for symptoms of low thyroid.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is actually a hormone. It is obtained mainly via food and exposure to sunlight. It is well known for supporting the absorption and metabolism of calcium and therefore, contributing to bone strength. However, researchers have also discovered that vitamin D helps to protect the heart and prevent cancer
Cortisol
You’ve probably heard people refer to cortisol as the stress hormone since it plays a role in the body’s stress response. However, this hormone which is produced by the adrenal glands plays an even bigger role in the body. Most of our cells have cortisol receptors that use cortisol for numerous functions including:
- The regulation of metabolism
- The reduction of inflammation
- The regulation of blood sugar
- The formulation of memory
Even though cortisol is important, too much of it is dangerous. It can lead to numerous unwanted symptoms including erectile dysfunction. If you suffer from erectile dysfunction, we offer a variety of treatment options including medications, non-invasive therapies, PRP injections, and TRIMIX injections.
Other Services
Other services we offer include:
IV infusion– Our infusions deliver fresh vitamins, electrolytes, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream for full and immediate absorption. Our infusions ignite your immune system to fight colds or flu and boost your energy and mental focus.
Aesthetics – If you’re bothered by crow’s feet, forehead furrows, or frown lines, neuromodulators can relax the muscles in your face, thereby reducing wrinkles. We offer Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin.
Dermal filler – Dermal fillers are injected into the face and lip to fill lines and add volume. They result in a more natural appearance than surgical facelifts. We carry the most popular dermal filler brands for aesthetic treatments including JUVEDERM®, JUVEDERM® Ultra, JUVEDERM® Ultra Plus, Voluma XC®Perlane and Restylane®, and Bellafill, a collagen rejuvenating filler that lasts for five years. Our packages are not a “one-size-fits-all” because we realize that each face is unique.
Weight loss – If you want to get rid of stubborn fat and improve your appearance and well-being, we can help you. By reducing excess fat, you lower your risk of developing diabetes, cancer and heart disease.
At Rejuvenate Men’s Hormone and Wellness Center, we provide individualized weight loss programs that are based on in-depth lab analysis. Each program includes coaching, support, and varied therapies aimed at helping you to achieve your desired results. We provide virtual consultations throughout your journey.

Telemedicine
From the comfort of your home, you can receive hormone therapy from highly qualified professionals. Hormones are our area of expertise at Rejuvenate Hormone and Wellness Center and we have lots of experience in providing telehealth services. This sets us apart from many other healthcare practitioners who have only recently started providing virtual visits. You’ll greatly increase your chances of getting better if you work with the right team of professionals.
Every telehealth practitioner should offer:
- The choice of at-home lab testing
- Relationships with reputable labs and compounding pharmacies (those that create customized medications)
- Secure, easy to use methods of communication
- Delivery of both tests and medications
Men who are experiencing hormonal issues need consistent medical care. That’s why it’s so important to work with a specialist who follows an established telehealth strategy. You’ll also be in better hands if they already know how to work with patients remotely. They should also have experience in building relationships with patients via virtual methods. You can trust the team at Rejuvenate Hormone and Wellness Center.
