“Bioidentical hormones can help those who have low hormone levels,” Dr. Randy Birken said.  “Many experience an increase in energy, motivation, and mental clarity.  And, there can be a significant improvement with libido and sexual performance.  Even patients who have gained weight and loss muscle tone can see improvement with fat reduction and increased muscle mass.”

Dr. Birken is a board certified physician and has done post graduate training with the Cenegenics Medical Institute as well as Worldlink Medical.  He is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and has medical offices in The Woodlands, Texas as well as Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

Why do some become fatigued, gain weight, lose muscle mass and tone, develop moodiness, have decreased libido and sexual performance, notice more wrinkled skin, sleep poorly, and have foggy  thinking with reduced memory?  Why do some exercise and eat healthy but still can’t lose fat?

“Hormones play a major role in our metabolism, physiology, emotions, and physical nature,” Dr. Randy A. Birken said.  “By optimizing hormones and using HCG injections, patients are able to lose weight as well as gain energy, improve sleep, restore muscle mass, sleep better at night, heightened their libido and sexual performance, become clearer in thinking, and look younger.”

Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas and has done post graduate training with the Cenegenics Medical Institute and Worldlink Medical.   He is certified in age management medicine with the Cenegenics Education and Research Foundation and has offices in The Woodlands, Texas as well as Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

“We often see dramatic clinical improvements in our patients.  More vitality and overall improvement in well being.  It’s especially gratifying to see patients lose weight after many unsuccessful and frustrated attempts,” Dr. Birken continued.  “Once we check both metabolic and reproductive hormones, we can optimize with bioidentical hormone capsules, creams, or injections.  The bioidentical pellets give consistent levels for months in both men and women.  The HCG hormone seems to change a person’s metabolism and aids in weight loss and fat reduction with effective exercise and a healthy diet.”

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.”

“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.
