Hormones affect almost everything: mood, metabolism, sleep, focus, and libido.
When they’re out of sync, your whole system feels it. At Flow Wellness in Washington and Oregon, patients tell us all the time that starting BHRT was the first time they finally felt like themselves again.
Here’s what they’ve said about their journey:
“I didn’t realize how bad I felt until I started feeling good again.”
After years of worsening fatigue and brain fog, a 53-year-old patient started BHRT with estrogen cream and testosterone pellets.
“Within a month, my energy started to come back. I wasn’t crashing in the afternoons as often, and my moods evened out. I’ve never been anxious or depressed before in my life so it was really weird when I started getting moody. Also, I don’t wake up every night at 3 in the morning anymore and that alone makes a huge difference.”
“I thought it was just normal aging. Turns out, my hormones were off.”
A 46-year-old woman came to Flow Wellness after her workouts stalled, her motivation tanked, and her libido disappeared.
“I had no idea low testosterone could happen to women too. Within a few weeks was focused again and actually wanted to move my body. Once we found my perfect dose, I switched to pellets and I feel ten years younger. I also think I have been able to keep more of my muscle and bones because of the pellets. And it definitely helped with my sex-life!”
“A plan that is perfect for me.”
A 55-year-old man who’d tried every supplement finally found consistency.
“At Flow, they tested everything first. My provider explained my labs in plain English and built a plan around them and how I felt. I don’t mind the testosterone shots, but I might switch to pellets in the future. For the first time, I feel more energetic and it’s working.”
“My hair stopped shedding, my skin looks better, and my mood is steady.”
A 52-year-old woman started BHRT for hot flashes but was shocked by the extra benefits.
“I swear my skin looks better. Now I sleep through the night with my progesterone, and I don’t feel like I’m running on fumes. Just because your labs say ‘normal’ doesn’t mean you feel normal. I’ve told my friends and two of them have also started hormones. I wish I’d started sooner.”
