Hormone deficiency can cause various symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, low libido, anxiety, poor sleep etc. It is mostly caused by aging, but also by chronic stress, medications, infections or radiation therapy.
Measuring hormone levels through blood work is key to determine the causes and customize suitable treatments. Common lab tests include total and free Testosterone, estradiol, TSH, IGF-1 etc.
Balancing hormone levels can often dramatically improve energy levels and quality of life. Our specialized medical providers customize treatment plans based on symptoms and lab results.
Renewed Balance Clinic clinic offers cutting edge Therapies like Testosterone Replacement (TRT), Growth Hormone (HGH), Thyroid treatment and Peptide injections.
Our clinic focuses specifically on hormone balancing and anti-aging therapies. With over 10 years of experience, our founders Dr. Thomas Cole and Dr. Amanda Smith are leading experts in this medical field in Missouri.
We take pride in listening to each patient, understanding lifestyle and customized care for long term health and vitality. Patient education, privacy and satisfaction are our top priority!
Peptide injections can help increase declining hormone levels related to aging like HGH, IGF-1 or rebuild tissues like joints, muscles, skin etc. Various peptide compounds are available for injection just under skin.
Unlike hormones taken orally, peptides injected under skin can powerfully stimulate natural hormone production and cell repair. Small peptide chains activate target receptors.
Based on patient symptoms and goals, providers customize mixes and dosages. Effects can be seen in 4-6 weeks with optimal cycle length of 3-6 months.
Here are our most effective peptides used in aging, performance enhancement and recovery:
* Boosts declining Growth Hormone (HGH levels) * Improves sleep quality, skin, energy levels * Helps build lean muscle, reduce body fat
* Works synergistically with HGH * Increases protein synthesis and cell growth * Enhances bone density, neuronal health
* Repairs injury in muscles, tendons, ligaments * Heals leaky gut, IBS and supports brain * Reduces inflammation in joints
* Repairs and regenerates damaged tissues * Helps various acute and chronic injuries * Anti-inflammatory effects
* Master antioxidant protecting cells * Boosts immune health * Detoxifies liver, kidneys and brain
The actual process only takes a few minutes. Our nurses clean the injection site, typically around the belly. Then the mixed peptide solution is injected under the skin using an ultrafine needle.
Initial hornmone testing guides dosage and mix. Follow up blood work tracks progress. Most patients start noticing benefits in 4-6 weeks with cycles averaging 3-6 months.
Convenience of injections at home allows for consistent dosing. We provide easy home kits with vials, syringes and instructions.
Peptides used in cosmetic injections can sometimes occur naturally in the body. For example, the peptide Argireline which is used to reduce wrinkles around the eyes is actually a fragment of the protein SNAP-25, which plays an important role in nerve functioning and communication between brain cells in the central nervous system.
As daylight hours decrease during Fall and Winter, many patients have symptoms of fatigue, weight gain and low motivation.
Starting peptide therapy in late Fall can provide a boost in energy and immunity before the holidays. It primes the body for staying active during the dark cold months.
The warmer and brighter days of Spring also enhance peptide absorption and benefits. Being outdoors boosts vitamin D levels which help in tissue repair.
Reconnecting with nature is key for mental and physical relaxation during treatment.
Nearby places we recommend include: - Rock Bridge State Park - Three Creeks Conservation Area - Capen Park - Cosmo Bethel Park
Staying active improves peptide therapy results. Recommended local gyms include: - Fitness 4 Life on Conley Rd - Club Fit on Rangeline St - Anytime Fitness on Broadway
Getting hormone blood work done regularly lets us track treatment efficacy. Nearby options are: - LabCorp on Cherokee Dr - Quest Diagnostics on N Keene St
Nutrition impacts how well peptides can repair cells and get absorbed. We suggest: -* VEGA on 9th St for vegetarian -* Uprise Bakery on Hitt St for organic -* Main Squeeze on Rangeline St for juicing
Peptides help repair cells but controlling stress through regular meditation is key. This allows maximum absorption and benefits.
We highly recommend apps like Calm or Headspace that guide short daily sessions. Yoga, breathwork and journaling also help relieve anxiety.
Spending time outdoors, eating clean and exercising make a significant difference versus just taking peptides.
Lifestyle changes may be needed, and our providers can offer customized biohacking tips and lab testing for genes, blood and microbiome.
We hope this guide gives you a good overview of how peptide injections can be used to stimulate hormone production and repair declining cells.
While results vary based on health status, most patients see significant benefits in 2-3 months that enhance energy, immunity, skin, fitness and overall vitality.
