I speak to prospective patients every day and I have been hearing that many have been buying hormones online after a Zoom call with a mystery provider in another state. The reason they are calling me is because they spent the time and money on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) yet, still don’t feel well. Hormones are very powerful and need to be prescribed properly. I have been providing HRT here in South Florida for 30+ years. During our free consultation, I gather information to help determine your personal dosing. I may even adjust the dosing when I see you in person, depending on your body type. So why take Bio Identical Hormones? Because they allow your body to feel and function as it did maybe 10-15 years ago. Restoring your youthful hormone balance is paramount to feeling and looking your best – no matter our age. Some symptoms of decreased hormone levels include difficulty sleeping, lack of energy, loss of mental focus and memory, feeling moody, anxious, and/or depressed. Many people notice weight gain, decreased muscle strength, joint pain, and reduced sexual desire, satisfaction and performance. Bio-Identical Hormones are derived from plants (Bio) and have the identical molecular structure (identical form) as the hormones we naturally produce in our bodies. Despite efforts to discredit Bio-Identical Hormones, scientific research keeps getting better and better, proving not only the quality-of-life benefits but also the health benefits of maintaining optimized hormonal balance. The latest studies show that utilizing our system over time may decrease cardiac issues, osteoporosis, arthritis, Alzheimer’s, Dementia, and even breast cancer. We have two researchers producing studies showing a 30-40% decreased risk of breast cancer using our pellet treatment. At LowTE Florida® we provide individualized treatment based on your biochemistry and your medical history – grounded in science, not guesswork. LowTEFlorida.com. You deserve better!

Osteopenia is the pre-osteoporosis state. It’s when our bone density score shows some bone loss, but not enough to be labeled osteoporosis. Thinning bones are a risk factor for experiencing a major bone break, such as a hip or spine.

Most people think of osteoporosis — a condition characterized by a loss of bone mass and density — as mainly a health problem for older women. If you’re male, you may have breathed a small sigh of relief — or simply tuned out — whenever osteoporosis came up. It wasn’t a disease you needed to worry about. It is well known that loss of estrogen causes osteoporosis in women. In men, reduced levels of testosterone may also cause osteoporosis. For both men and women, as our hormones decline, so does our bone strength.

So, what is our best defense? Optimizing your hormones with natural Bio-Identical Hormone Pellet Therapy, weight-bearing exercise, optimizing Vitamin D, and a healthy diet is a good place to start.

Having the constant delivery of the hormones creates a perfect environment for Testosterone to rebuild bones. Testosterone has been proven to rebuild bone!

One of the greatest joys of my practice is hearing a patient tell me about how their bone density tests have improved after a year or two of pellet therapy! Seeing the improved bone density reports is so rewarding.

At LowTE Florida® we provide individualized treatment based on your biochemistry and your medical history using Bio-Identical pellets. My system is grounded in science, not guesswork. For more information, go to: LowTEFlorida.com or call 954-791-4498.

Our muscles change with aging – due to a loss of important hormones. The technical term is Sarcopenia, and it is a progressive, age-related loss of muscle mass, strength, and motor function. In my practice, I have seen wonderful body changes due to hormone optimization. One man comes to mind that started with HRT a few years back – he came in with his Tommy Bahama shirt untucked and hanging. A year later, he came in wearing a tight t-shirt showing off his healthy-looking chiseled “guns”!

Without optimal testosterone, you cannot build muscle. You can tone and keep what you have, but you can’t build muscle. Having nice strong muscles as we age is key to healthy aging.

So why take Bio Identical Hormones? Because they allow your body to feel and function as it did maybe 10-15 years ago. Restoring your youthful hormone balance is paramount to feeling and looking your best – no matter our age. Some symptoms of decreased hormone levels include difficulty sleeping, lack of energy, loss of mental focus and memory, feeling moody, anxious, depressed.

I can’t tell you how many times I have heard this – it is music to my ears. I often think about how unfair it can be that people experience significant changes as their hormone levels naturally decline with age. So, the person you married is no longer the same person (mood swings, anxiety, depression, low libido, etc.).

However, when we optimize hormones, I hear time and time again – “I feel so much better, I like myself better, my partner likes me better and life is good again!” Many people have told me that after their bio-identical hormone treatment, they feel more like their “old self,” and their relationships are much better.

So why take Bio-Identical Hormones? Because they allow your body to feel and function as it did maybe 10-15 years ago. Restoring your youthful hormone balance is paramount to feeling and looking your best – no matter your age.

Imagine my joy as I heard this on the national news morning shows! FINALLY! The world is catching on!

But as I watched the segments, I learned they are just re-analyzing the Women’s Health Initiative study data from 2002 on synthetic hormones. Since it was on synthetic hormones, they had to add that it is safe to start under the age of 60 due to the increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and deep vein thrombosis.

What they didn’t say is that Bio-Identical Hormones have not been shown to have any clotting factors that could lead to these events.

I have been starting women on Bio-Identical Hormones from ages 35-82 without any issues. Sure, life is going to happen – people are diagnosed with cancer, stroke, and heart attack with or without hormones. However, the latest studies on Bio-Identical Hormones show they are supportive for the heart, brain, bones, breast, prostate, and relationships!

So why take Bio-Identical Hormones? Because they allow your body to feel and function as it did maybe 10-15 years ago. Restoring your youthful hormone balance is paramount to feeling and looking your best – no matter your age. Some symptoms of decreased hormone levels include difficulty sleeping, lack of energy, loss of mental focus and memory, moodiness, anxiety, and depression.

There is so much misinformation around hormone therapy which unfortunately creates unnecessary fear. Many patients have been told hormones are bad and can cause cancer, heart disease, or blood clots, which is just not true.

The good news is that Bio-Identical Hormones are not the “bad” hormones and have been shown to safely bring symptom relief and be an excellent preventative care tool. Men and women both are great candidates for Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy and should not run from it! Our bodies go through hormonal changes and, because of that, can have symptoms that can be life-altering, such as depression, anxiety, loss of interest in the things we once loved, sleep issues, joint pain, inability to gain muscle, inability to lose weight, and low libido.

Pellet therapy is not new; hormone pellets have been used with great success in the United States, Europe, and Australia since 1939. More than 80 years of research have illustrated the benefits and safety of pellet implants for administering hormones to both women and men.

Our pellet therapy uses bio-identical, all-natural estrogen and testosterone, delivered by tiny pellets inserted just under the skin. Over the next several months, the pellets release the hormones and are eventually absorbed completely.

Our pellets are made from the highest quality plant based materials. Pellets deliver constant levels of hormone replacement for months at a time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This prevents the roller-coaster ride of the other modes of delivery (pills, shots, patches, gels, creams, etc.).

Through precise testing and proper consultation, the most accurate dose is prescribed for each patient. At LowTE Florida® we provide individualized treatment based on your biochemistry and your medical history – grounded in science, not guesswork. Call today to schedule your FREE Consultation with Bio-Identical Hormone Expert, Carolyn Zaumeyer, MSN, APRN 954-791-4498.

 Has this happened to you? You aren’t feeling well. You make your list of symptoms, maybe something like fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, joint pain, mood swings, and no libido. You visit with your healthcare provider, run over your symptoms, then you have labs drawn. You have hope that they will find what is causing you to not feel like your old self. A week or two later, you get a call from someone from your provider’s office with the message, “Your labs are normal.”

What the heck?? No explanation?? At LowTE Florida, we do a comprehensive blood study before we begin treatment. We go over the labs line by line with you in person so you can ask questions and really understand what your blood studies are showing. Just because your lab values are “normal”, they may not be “optimal”. Bringing your hormones, thyroid, and nutrients into the “optimal range” may make all the difference!

Many times, optimizing hormones can increase energy, libido, improve mood and mental clarity for both men and women. A simple blood test can prove that it isn’t your fault ~ your body is just producing less hormones than you did a few years back – which is “normal” but not “optimal” for good health and a good life.

With over 80 years of research behind us – Bio Identical Hormone Pellets have been proven to be safe and effective in optimizing hormones! Personalizing the dose for you is critical for your success.

Hormone and thyroid replacement therapy have been getting a lot of attention lately. Many practitioners go to a weekend course and add BHRT to their practice without the in-depth knowledge and passion that Carolyn Zaumeyer, NP has. At LowTE Florida, we are dedicated hormone experts that utilize science, not guesswork. Call for your FREE Consultation!

Do you wake up tired? Are you so tired at the end of your workday that you just want to sink into the couch and be done? Fatigue is the number one reason patients come to LowTE Florida – followed by weight gain. You’re getting older. Maybe you are a bit heavier than you used to be ~ possibly some brain fog? Is your hair thinning? A sluggish thyroid can lead to increased body fat and affect your energy level, mood, hair, mental clarity, and overall sense of well-being.

The thyroid gland is in the center at the base of your neck. Thyroid hormones are important for regulation of body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, metabolism, hair growth, dry/itchy skin, constipation and much more.

Many times, optimizing thyroid hormones can increase energy and mental clarity for both men and women. A simple blood test can prove that it isn’t your fault ~ you just are simply not producing as much thyroid as you did a few years back – which is “normal” but not “optimal” for good health.

Traditional medicine practitioners tend to rely on only one blood test to evaluate the thyroid, the TSH. At LowTE Florida, we dig a little deeper, checking on the thyroid hormones that are being utilized throughout your body (T3 & T4), not just the Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) which just indicates what is going on between your thyroid gland and your brain. For a better description, go to LowTEFlorida.com and look for my interview with Endocrinologist Gary Pepper, MD.

With luck, good genes, good habits, and good hormones many older people are enjoying a great life! If you want to “Age Naturally”, leave an apple on your counter for three months. That is a good example of what aging without hormones does to your body. I don’t know about you ~ but that isn’t how I want to age!

Estrogen is a “moisture” hormone. It has over 400 functions in the body. When it wanes naturally with time, you may notice changes in your body such as dry hair, dry eye, skin changes, joint pain, vaginal dryness, painful sexual relations, and many more uncomfortable feelings.

When I optimize hormones, I hear from my patients that they get a nice, delicious sleep, feel more like exercising, and have better results when they do exercise. Sexual thoughts are more, and sexual satisfaction is far better. Temperature swings, vaginal dryness is repaired. Anxiety and depression may be relieved, brain fog lifted and for many, joint pain is relieved. We tend to think of testosterone and estradiol as “sex hormones” but as you can see, they have multi-system functions that are important for our well-being.

At LowTE Florida, we utilize Bio-Identical Hormone pellets that are scientifically dosed specifically for you. Hormone pellets are very safe – they have been used in this country for over eighty years.

I currently pellet more people in Florida than any other providers and I rank #2 in the nation. This is all I do. Many providers add hormone therapy to their practice for increased revenues after taking a weekend course without having the training, knowledge and experience I have achieved. If you would like to find out if I can help you feel your best, call today to schedule your FREE virtual consultation 954.791.4498.

Valentine’s Day inspires many ads and promotions focused on love. If you find this irritating – you may benefit from hormone optimization!
