Hormones are the body's chemical messengers that regulate many essential biological functions. Some key hormones include:
When your hormonal balance is disrupted and levels decline, you may experience unwelcome symptoms associated with "hormone deficiency". For example:
Left untreated, the consequences of hormone imbalance can be life-altering. Research shows links between low testosterone and higher mortality rates in men, for instance.1 Other issues like heart disease, osteoporosis, anxiety, depression and impaired brain function are also associated with hormone deficiency.2,3
Fortunately, restoring your hormone levels to optimal ranges with professional hormone therapy can help you:
Our bioidentical hormone therapy programs can help both men and women prevent the undesirable age-related changes that accompany declining hormones. We can also treat acute hormonal disorders at any age.
Let's take a closer look at how hormone therapy works and the life-changing benefits our patients experience.
The first step is to schedule a comprehensive consultation and evaluation with one of our hormone therapy specialists at Rejuvenate Hormone Clinic. We'll:
Bioidentical hormone replacement offers advantages over synthetic hormones because bioidenticals are structurally identical to the hormones your body produces. This allows them to bind to your hormone receptors and mimic the activity of your natural hormones more precisely.
We customize your hormone protocols using cutting-edge hormone testing and innovative methods like pellet therapy. This involves implanting tiny bioidentical hormone pellets under your skin that dissolve slowly and provide steady hormone levels over months.
For women seeking natural hormone replacement, we also offer creams, tablets and other methods to replenish estrogen, progesterone, DHEA and testosterone to relieve menopause symptoms, restore energy levels, improve sleep quality and support fitness, bone density, mood and more.
For men we offer custom therapies to address: low testosterone (Low T), elevated estrogen levels, thyroid disorders and other hormone conditions leading to undesirable changes like fatigue, weight gain, irritability and loss of vitality. Our comprehensive programs help men powerfully restore their vitality, masculinity, lean muscle mass and performance.
We also develop tailored plans for hormone balance including medications, nutrition and lifestyle recommendations based on each patient's needs and objectives.
With countless purported "anti-aging clinics" and hormone centers to choose from, why should you choose Rejuvenate Hormone Clinic for your hormone replacement needs? Here's what sets us apart:
In short, you can expect clinical excellence, an exceptional patient experience, and life-changing results. Many of our patients say they feel "a decade younger" after getting their hormones rebalanced and optimized!
The good news is there's truly no "wrong" time to take control of your health with hormone replacement therapy. However, certain times of year make it more convenient for new patients to start treatment without lots of travel or other major obligations.
For example, early spring is an ideal window to begin hormone therapy in Appleton when the winter blues start to lift but summer vacations and activities are still a couple months away. The climate is warming up so you can get outside and be active to enhance the benefits.
Late summer to early fall is another good season to get started before the holidays. You'll have time to stabilize your hormone levels and start feeling the positive effects before cold weather and seasonal affective disorder hits. You'll go into winter with restored energy, immunity and vibrancy.
Of course everyone has unique needs and circumstances. The key is not putting off treatment if your quality of life is impaired by hormone imbalance. Take the first step by scheduling a consultation with us today. We're here to guide you on your path to better health and wellbeing!
Hormone therapy can have surprising benefits beyond changing secondary sex characteristics. For example, trans women who undergo feminizing hormone therapy often report improved skin softness and texture, changes in body odor to a more traditionally feminine scent, and even subtle shifts in emotions and cognition, leading to greater empathy and emotional sensitivity over time.
To provide fully customized treatment, we first need to identify which of your hormones are low or out of balance through diagnostic testing. At Rejuvenate Hormone Clinic, we go far beyond the standard panels to assess a wide range of key hormones using state-of-the-art tests.
For instance, in male patients we check:
We also test crucial hormones in women including:
This comprehensive testing allows us to develop fully customized treatment plans to restore your optimal hormone balance. We retest hormones at regular intervals to ensure you're getting the proper dosing and maximum benefits.

Because bioidentical hormones have a molecular structure identical to your natural hormones, they can bind and interact with hormone receptors in the ideal way your body expects. Synthetics often have slightly different structures that may not quite "fit" receptor sites properly. Thus, bioidenticals generally provide better balancing effects with less risk of side effects.
The most common benefits our male patients report from testosterone therapy include: renewed energy and stamina, increased muscle mass and strength, fat loss, sharper mental focus, greater confidence and self-esteem, improved erections and sex drive, better mood and motivation.
Yes, we do accept and bill select major insurance plans. Most cover a portion of diagnosis, testing, medications, and treatment. We have a person dedicated to insurance coordination and billing to optimize what's covered. We're also happy to provide a superbill so you can submit to your insurance directly for reimbursement if we are out-of-network.
Everyone metabolizes hormones differently, so there's variability. However, with pellets, results typically last 4-6 months before levels decline and a "booster" treatment is needed. With gels, creams or oral therapy, dosing is usually daily or weekly. We tailor maintenance regimens to your needs for sustained results.
When properly dosed, monitored and adjusted, side effects are minimal. However, every medication has potential risks. For this reason, regular testing and checkups are key. For testosterone, potential side effects include acne, hair loss, prostate issues if too high. For estrogen, headache, fluid retention, nausea or breast tenderness may occur if dosing is off. This is why an expert clinician guiding your therapy is so important.Please let us know if you have any other questions!
