Most people attribute constant and chronic fatigue, low libido, poor sleep, moodiness, weight gain, loss of muscle tone, poor sleep, and mental fogginess to “just getting old.”  But blaming age may not be all correct since hormone deficiencies may be the cause.

“Once we identify reduced hormones, we then optimize.  And after that, we see profound clinical responses – more energy, weight loss, improved skin texture, better sleep, enhanced libido and sexual performance, mood elevation, motivation, and mental clarity, ” Dr. Randy Birken said.  “We can’t stop aging, but we can improve overall vitality and well-being.”

Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston as well as a board certified and Cenegenics Medical Institute physician.  He has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

Bioidentical hormones can be given as capsules, transdermal creams and gels, injections, and under the skin pellets.

“We customize our prescription hormone regimen,” Dr. Birken continued.  “This individualization is based on each patient’s unique physiology, metabolism, and lifestyle.”

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

For some women, childbirth creates anatomic changes in both vaginal contour and labia.  This can lead to vaginal looseness, reduced intimacy, as well as irritation from exercise and compromised aesthetics.

Dr. Randy Birken is a board certified gynecologist and Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.  He is a member of the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of America and has trained with Dr. David Matlock in Beverly Hills, California.

“The laser approach offers a more precise technique,” Dr. Birken said. “Patients heal quicker and with less discomfort.”

Laser vaginal rejuvenation and laser labiaplasty can improve vaginal tightness and subsequently enhance intimacy while changing the appearance of stretched and elongated labia.

Why is it more difficult to lose weight as we age?

“Hormones play a major role,” Dr. Randy Birken said.  “Patients become frustrated when they diet and exercise and still can’t shed the pounds.”

By optimizing hormones and using the HCG injection hormone, patients lose fat and not muscle mass.

“That’s the key, ” Dr. Birken continued.  “When you diet and lose both fat and muscle, it’s hard to keep if off in the long run.”

Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.  He is a board certified and Cenegenics Medical Institute physician.

“HCG changes how one loses weight,” he continued. “Patients lose fat and not muscle.  They look good and can keep the weight off with the right ratio of muscle to fat.”

While an off label use, HCG as been used successfully to help patients lose weight along with proper diet, effective exercise, correct supplementation, and with hormone optimization.

Bioidentical Hormone Optimization for Men and Women

As we age, our body and mind change: fatigue, weight gain, loss of muscle mass, poor sleep, sagging skin, lowered libido, mental fog and compromised memory, reduced motivation, and moodiness.  We blame getting older, but why does this happen?

“Many factors are contributors,” Dr. Randy A. Birken said,  “but decreasing hormone levels are one of the major players.’

Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.  He is a board certified and Cenegenics Medical Institute physician.

“Once we optimized lowered hormones in men and women, ” Dr. Birken continued, “we see dramatic changes.  More energy and motivation, weight loss, improved muscle tone as well as libido and sexual performance.  Additionally, patients sleep better and have enhanced moods with greater mental clarity.  It is most gratifying as a physician to see these improvements in our patients and I know the risks for aged related diseases are reduced as well.”

Dr. Birken has studied the benefits that bioidentical hormones offer but is passionate about customizing hormones per individual.

“There is no cookie cutter way to administer hormones,” he continued.  “We all have a different physiology, metabolism, and life style that must be included in designing the right hormone program.”

Dr. Birken embraces the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy as a alternate to more conventional creams and oral preparations.

“I like the even and sustained levels we get with pellets, and clinically, patients feels better as a result of the pellet’s balanced approach.”
