/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Dr. Randy A. Birken specializes in age management medicine for men and women including bioidentical hormone optimization as well as IV nutritional therapy, including the Meyer’s Cocktail, and weight management.

“Our hormones decline with age,” Dr. Birken said.  “This can lead to many conditions such as chronic fatigue, weight gain,  poor sleep, mental fogginess, decreased libido and sexual performance, loss of muscle tone and muscle mass, moodiness, lack of motivation, aches and pains, and even a decrease in skin collagen.”

Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and is board certified as well as having postgraduate training with the Cenegenics Medicine Institute and Worldlink Health.  He has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

“We usually see dramatic clinical changes,” Dr. Birken continued.  “More energy, fat loss and muscle gain, improved libido, increase motivation, less aches and pains, heightened focus and sharper memory, and an overall improvement in vitality and well-being.”

Dr. Birken utilizes bioidentical hormones as capsules, creams, sublingual, injections, and the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy.

“Pellets provide a nice continuous and balanced level for hormones for several months.”

Patients are confused about hormones.  Are synthetic, produced by pharmaceutical companies, safer than bioidentical hormones that are compounded by specialized pharmacies?  Do men lose hormones as they age?  At what age should a patient evaluate their hormone levels?  How long should someone stay on hormones?  And what type of hormones help?

“All common questions,” Dr. Randy A. Birken said.  “Patients are confused about what hormones are good and which kinds are safer.”

Dr. Birken is a board certified physician who specializes in bioidentical hormones and age management medicine.  He is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and has done postgraduate age management medicine training with the Cenegenics Medical Institute as well as training with Dr. Neal Rouzier through Worldlink Medical.  He has medical offices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

“Fatigue, loss of muscle tone, lowered libido, weight gain, poor sleep, moodiness, lack of motivation, and mental fogginess are part of aging and usually associated with a decline in hormones for men and women,” Dr. Birken continued.  “We see impressive clinical results with bioidentical hormones that include more energy, clearer thinking, better sleep, heightened libido and sexual performance, enhanced moods, and an increase in vitality and well being.”

Dr. Birken’s bioidentical hormone programs includes blood tests for testosterone, thyroid, adrenal, and estrogen as well progesterone in women.

Hormones can be administered as capsules, transdermal creams, injections of pellets.  Dr. Birken uses the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy.

“Patients have an even and balanced availability with pellets,” Dr. Birken said.  “Its not the only way to prescribe hormones, but it is an easy way to obtain a more consistent and sustained level of hormones for months.”
