Hormones, handled by a physician who tests first and treats second.
Fatigue, weight that will not move, low drive, sleep that does not restore, moods that are not you. A real workup finds out whether hormones are the cause — and if they are, you get treatment that is monitored, adjusted, and explained.
What hormone care includes
Diagnosis before prescriptions. Optimization only when the numbers and the symptoms both say so.
Diagnosis
A full history, a physical, and a hormone panel chosen for your symptoms — thyroid beyond TSH, sex hormones, adrenal function, and the metabolic markers that move with them.
Optimization
When labs are "normal" but you are not, we look at where in the range you sit and what changed. Sometimes the answer is treatment; sometimes it is sleep, training, or a medication you are already on.
Treatment and medications
Testosterone therapy, hormone therapy for perimenopause and menopause, thyroid medication, and the rest — prescribed by a physician, monitored with follow-up labs, adjusted as you respond.
Consultations and questions
Time to actually ask. Is this normal for my age? Is treatment safe for me? What happens if I stop? You leave with answers, not a pamphlet.
Second opinions
Already on a regimen from a clinic or an online service? Bring your labs. You get an independent physician read on whether it is working and whether it is safe.
Lifestyle that holds
Sleep, strength training, nutrition, alcohol, stress — the levers that move hormones without a prescription, written into a plan you can actually keep.
For men
Low energy, lower drive, stubborn belly weight, poor sleep, a shorter fuse. Testosterone gets the blame, and sometimes deserves it — but thyroid, sleep apnea, medications, and metabolic health cause the same picture. The workup tells them apart before anything is prescribed.
If testosterone therapy is right for you, it is managed the way it should be: a physician, a clear target, follow-up labs, and honest conversation about what it does and does not fix.
For women
Cycles that changed, hot flashes, sleep that broke, brain fog, weight that appeared out of nowhere, thyroid symptoms your last labs "did not show." Perimenopause, menopause, and thyroid disease are diagnosed properly here, and treated with your history in the room.
Hormone therapy is offered when it fits, with a plain discussion of benefits and risks for you — not a blanket yes, not a blanket no.
Questions people ask
Which hormones do you test?
A full panel when it is warranted: thyroid beyond TSH, testosterone and free testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, DHEA-S, cortisol, prolactin, LH/FSH, SHBG, and the metabolic markers that interact with them. Chosen for your symptoms, not sold as a bundle.
Do you treat low testosterone?
Yes, after a proper workup. Treatment options are discussed plainly, including when treatment is not the right call. Medication is managed with follow-up labs.
Do you treat perimenopause and menopause?
Yes. Symptoms, labs, and history are reviewed together, and hormone therapy is offered when appropriate, with an honest conversation about benefits and risks for you specifically.
Can I get a second opinion on my current treatment?
Yes. Bring your labs and your current regimen. You get an independent physician read on whether it is working, safe, and worth continuing.
Is hormone care covered by insurance?
Consultations and most lab work are often covered. For anything that is not, you will know the price before you decide — and you can still get it without the gatekeeping.
Can this be done by telehealth?
Consultations and follow-ups, yes. Labs are drawn in person at the clinic or a nearby draw site.
Start with the workup, not the prescription.
Book a hormone consultation with a board-certified physician. In person in Ridgeland or by telehealth across Mississippi.
