ABOUT THIS SERVICE

What is BHRT ?

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are molecularly identical to those your body naturally produces. As hormones decline with age, or become imbalanced due to stress, lifestyle, or health changes, symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, low libido, and poor sleep begin to emerge.

BHRT restores that foundation. At Optimized Balance & Beauty, every hormone plan begins with a comprehensive consultation and full lab panel. Shannon reviews your results alongside your symptoms and health history to build a protocol tailored specifically to you and not a generic template.

Available as pellet therapy or injectable BHRT, both options are medically supervised and adjusted over time as your body responds.

WHAT IT RESTORES

Restore balance from within.

Hormonal balance is foundational to overall well-being. Pellet therapy provides steady, consistent hormone release to support:

  • ENERGY

  • Libido

  • WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

  • BONE & MUSCLE HEALTH

  • SLEEP QUALITY

  • MOOD & BALANCE

  • MENTAL CLARITY

  • Long-Term Vitality​

Hormone Delivery

TREATMENT OPTIONS

01

Pellets The Gold
Standard

Tiny bioidentical hormone pellets are inserted just beneath the skin in a simple in-office procedure. They release a steady, consistent dose of hormones directly into the bloodstream, closely mimicking the body's natural pattern. There are no weekly injections to remember, just consistent hormone delivery every 3 to 6 months.

02

Additional Delivery
Options

For patients who prefer other delivery methods, Shannon is happy to discuss all available options during your consultation, including hormone creams, patches, troches, and injectable BHRT.

03

Comprehensive Lab
Analysis

Every hormone protocol begins with a complete lab panel. Shannon evaluates estrogen, testosterone, thyroid, cortisol, DHEA, and other key markers. Labs are repeated throughout treatment to monitor your response and keep your protocol optimized as your body changes.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU

Common Signs You May Benefit

  • Fatigue that doesn't improve with rest

  • Night sweats or hot flashes

  • Unexplained weight gain, especially around the midsection

  • Mood changes, anxiety, or irritability

  • Fatigue that doesn't improve with rest

  • Low libido or painful intimacy

  • Brain fog or difficulty concentrating

  • Poor sleep or difficulty staying asleep

Men May Experience

  • Decreased energy and stamina

  • Reduced muscle mass and increased body fat

  • Low sex drive or performance concerns

  • Mood changes, anxiety, or irritability

  • Brain fog and reduced mental sharpness

Shannon's Approach

Personalized, Not Prescribed

Shannon does not use one-size-fits-all hormone protocols. She believes that effective hormone care requires understanding the whole patient, including your labs, your symptoms, your lifestyle, and your goals, before a single milligram of hormone is recommended.

Her approach is grounded in evidence, guided by labs, and refined over eight years of BHRT specialization. She will never recommend a treatment she does not believe will genuinely help you, and she will always explain the reasoning behind every decision.

Patients consistently describe Shannon as warm, direct, and deeply invested in their success. At Optimized Balance & Beauty, you are never a protocol. You are a person, and your care reflects that.
