Why is it so difficult to lose weight in spite of eating healthy and exercising?  Why do we tend to become more stressed, fatigued, and mentally foggy as we age?  Why is there a decrease in libido, sexual performance, memory, and motivation as we get older?

“Declining hormones can be the problem or exacerbate the underlying problems,” Dr. Randy Birken said.  “Patients usually gain weight, lose energy and motivation, have more anxiety and can’t think as well with age.  It becomes a huge frustration for someone who eats healthy and exercises regularly.”

Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.  He has done postgraduate training with the Cenegenics Medical Institute as well as with Worldlink Health.  He is a published author of a novel, two collections of short stories, and a non-fiction chronicle.  Office locations are in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

“We thoroughly evaluate hormone levels in men and women,” Dr. Birken continued.  “Once these levels are optimized with bioidentical hormones, patients may restore their energy, mental clarity, motivation, and have an overall increase in vitality and well-being.  These is an increase in libido as well as weight loss due to fat reduction and more muscle mass.”

Dr. Birken uses many forms of bioidentical hormones including capsules, creams, and injections as well as the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy,a way to ensure consistent and balanced delivery of hormones over several months.  He also prescribes HCG with the HCG diet and HCG injections to promote healthy and natural weight loss and fat reduction.
