Bioidentical Hormones - Cobb Wellness and Aesthetics

We have changed our focus to creating hormone balancing programs with our patients who are in our Intimate Wellness Programs or Optimal Body Composition programs.

With aging, the loss of muscle mass is associated with many of the chronic diseases that can occur as we age. Maintenance of lean muscle is very important.

We offer a detailed Body Composition analysis with the In Body Device and offer programs that support your production of growth hormone.

Our programs can result :

Improved energy
Optimal weight
Greater vitality and zest for life
Improved sleep
Decreased hot flashes
Improved libido

Growth Hormone

This hormone is important and levels drop after our mid thirties. Growth hormone is important for energy, sleep, healing and recovery from exercise and mood. Dr. Kelley does not prescribe growth hormone replacement. We offer a Growth hormone boosting peptide formulation called Sarcotropin.

Sex Hormones

Sex hormone imbalances can occur at any age and stage in life. They can occur in men and women. Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are present in men and women.

Men can experience a decline in testosterone levels associated with low testosterone such as lack of motivation, difficulty building muscle, depression and sexual issues. This condition is called Low T or Andropause.

Testosterone decline is also common in women, often starting in the late 3os. Most of us think of testosterone as only being important in men. However, it is important in women too. It helps with libido, sexual function, being able to build muscle in response to exercise, mood and bone health. We offer testosterone pellets therapy along with other options for testosterone repletion.

We recommend a balanced regimen in women with includes testosterone (pellets or compounded), estrogen creams or patches and progesterone capsules.

Our male patients do well with testosterone injections, creams and an oral medication that blocks testosterone from being converted to estrogen.

Including hormone balancing with our Intimate Wellness and Body compositions programs enhances the results.

Thyroid Hormones

The thyroid gland is a butterfly shaped gland located in the neck. It produces hormones that help regulate our energy, mood and metabolism. There are differing opinions about the normal values for thyroid lab testing. Dr. Kelley will look at an in depth lab panel and also assess your symptoms when evaluating your thyroid balance. She uses the criteria for optimal thyroid hormone levels that were determined by the Academy of Anti-aging medicine.

Many of our patients have had a significant improvement in energy and quality of life once their thyroid hormones were optimized.

Gut Health

The health of the gut is important because this is the area where your food is digested and absorbed. We have found that improving gut health can have profound impact on vitality, energy and overall health. The GIMap test has been very beneficial and helpful for our patients in identifying opportunities to optimize gut health and overall wellness.

Detoxification

Detoxification with one of our 14 day programs can provide a reset for you to take a new direction with our health. The liver is an important organ for detoxification. It works very hard for us. These low inflammation, rich in antioxidant cleanses can help with pain, energy and excess weight.

Pellets deliver consistent, physiologic levels of hormones. They have been shown to maintain and improve bone density. Pellets bypass the liver the and do not negatively impact clotting factors, blood pressure, lipid levels, glucose or liver function.

Pellets are placed under the skin in the hip area in a simple procedure performed by the doctor. The hormones are released slowly over time. Typically, pellets need to be reinserted every 3-6 months.

Typically, testosterone can be administered with pellets. Progesterone will still need to be taken as a capsule. The testosterone in the pellets can be easily converted to estrogen and we have not found it to be necessary to add extra estrogen for our patients.

Bioidentical hormone pellet therapy can help with:

Hot flashes
Low libido
Mood and depression
Insomnia
Sex Drive and Libido
Joint aches and pains

Once the pellets are placed, most women start to feel some effects within a few days.
