What Is Bioidentical Hormone Therapy?
Bioidentical hormones are processed hormones designed to mimic the hormones made by your body’s glands. Taking bioidentical hormones can help people who experience symptoms of low or unbalanced hormones. This is often the case for people experiencing symptoms of menopause or andropause. Hormones are chemicals made by your endocrine glands. They are messengers that tell other parts of your body how and when to work. Hormones affect many systems and functions in your body. Even the slightest imbalance can cause symptoms that interfere with your day. Healthcare providers may recommend hormone replacement therapy as a treatment for these symptoms. Bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) uses processed hormones that come from plants. Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are the most commonly used bioidentical hormones.

What Is Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy?
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) treats chronic tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendonitis, among other conditions. These conditions mainly affect athletes but can also affect everyday people, especially individuals who lead an active lifestyle and overexert their muscles. You may experience pain and discomfort when these injuries happen. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy can help.
​
ESWT is a noninvasive treatment used for several conditions. While it has gained popularity as a method for treating foot- and ankle-related injuries, it has also been used in treating kidney stones. ESWT was first developed as a method to treat kidney stones and gallstones and has been successful in treating those conditions for two decades.
​
Furthermore, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is utilized for treating musculoskeletal conditions such as tennis elbow and bony nonunions. It derives from the principles of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).Following their debut, devices for extracorporeal shockwave therapy have received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of lateral epicondylitis and plantar fasciitis.
What is a PRP Penis Shot?
Most men will tell you that their penis is the most important organ in his body. Of course, while this is not exactly true for everyday physiologic survival, proper and reliable function of the penis plays a large role in intimate relationships. Difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection and/or concerns about penile size, shape and curvature, with or without pain, can affect one’s self-esteem and create significant stress between partners. Our bodies have a remarkable capacity to heal themselves. Regeneration of new tissue is accomplished by the natural production of stem cells. PRP involves concentrated platelets, rich in bioactive proteins, which release growth factors to stimulate cellular regeneration and accelerate tissue repair. The benefits of PRP were initially used in wound healing, dentistry and the treatment of sports injuries, but now have evolved to address aesthetic concerns and sexual dysfunction (erectile dysfunction and Peyronie’s Disease for men). PRP is one of the most advanced, effective natural treatments for cellular repair AND rejuvenation throughout the body.
What is a PRP G-Spot Shot?
If there was a simple, natural, non-invasive way to improve your orgasms and enjoy vaginal rejuvenation, would you consider it? As societal discussions around self-care and holistic health continue to expand, so do the innovative solutions that empower individuals to embrace every facet of their lives, including their sexuality. Women are no exception. Today’s woman is just as eager as men to feel sexually empowered and improve their sexual health and performance. The PRP G-Spot Shot, sometimes called the G-Shot, feminine wellness shot, or vaginal rejuvenation, is proving to be one of the best in-office procedures for women to reduce issues impacting their sexual health, improve libido, and much more.
​
The O-shot is a safe, minimally invasive procedure that uses the body’s natural healing abilities to improve the function and health of the clitoris and vaginal canal. At the heart of the O-Shot’s magic lies Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), leveraging the healing factors within the patient’s own bloodstream. When injected into the targeted areas of the vaginal tissue – like the clitoris, G-spot, or vaginal canal – PRP produces an array of natural healing processes. Blood vessels widen, stimulating healthier blood flow. Collagen production also increases, enhancing tissue structure and elasticity. The result? Tangible improvements in vaginal health and intimate experiences, helping women to embrace their bodies and desires.
What is Testosterone Replacement Therapy?
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a treatment designed to restore testosterone levels in men who have a deficiency or lack of testosterone. Testosterone is the primary male sex hormone produced in the testicles. It plays a key role in male sexual development, muscle and bone growth, sex drive, sperm production, and red blood cell production. As men age, their testosterone levels naturally decline each year after age 30. For some men, testosterone levels can drop to abnormally low levels, leading to symptoms of low testosterone or "low T." This condition is called hypogonadism.
​
What are the Symptoms of Low Testosterone?
Symptoms of low testosterone or hypogonadism can include:
-
Low sex drive/libido
-
Erectile dysfunction
-
Depressive mood/lack of motivation
-
Fatigue and lack of energy
-
Loss of muscle mass and strength
-
Increased body fat
-
Osteoporosis (bone loss)
​
How Does Testosterone Replacement Therapy Work?
TRT works by raising and maintaining testosterone levels through supplementation. It can be administered in several ways:
-
Injections - Testosterone is injected directly into the muscle every 1-2 weeks.
-
Pellets - Pellets that release testosterone over 3-6 months are surgically inserted under the skin.
-
Gels or patches - A testosterone gel is applied daily to the arms, shoulders, or abdomen. Patches are worn on the body as well.
​
Before starting TRT, blood tests are done to measure existing testosterone levels. Dosages are customized per the individual's unique needs. Periodic monitoring of levels and health is required.
Benefits of Proper TRT Can Include:
-
Increased muscle mass and strength
-
Higher libido and better sexual function
-
Increased energy and endurance
-
Improved mood and well-being
-
Increased bone mineral density
With proper medical supervision and monitoring, TRT can be an effective way for men with low T to restore their hormones and vitality.
