PERSONALIZED HORMONE CARE

Hormone Optimization

in O'Fallon, MO

Feel More Like Yourself Again.

Personalized hormone care for women and men experiencing changes in energy, sleep, mood, body composition, sexual health, and overall well-being.

Your treatment starts with a comprehensive evaluation of your symptoms, goals, health history, and labs — not a one-size-fits-all protocol.

INITIAL EVALUATION

A Complete Picture, Not Just Hormone Levels.

Many people come to AdoreU after having labs checked and being told everything looks “normal” — yet they still don’t feel like themselves.

Hormone-related symptoms rarely exist in isolation. Changes in energy, sleep, mood, libido, body composition, mental clarity, strength, and overall well-being can be influenced by hormones, thyroid function, metabolic health, nutritional status, medications, lifestyle, and other factors.

That’s why your evaluation goes beyond a basic hormone panel.

We look at your symptoms, health history, goals, and comprehensive lab results together to better understand what may be contributing to the way you feel and whether hormone therapy is appropriate.

The goal is not to chase a single lab number.

It’s to understand the bigger picture and build a treatment plan around you.

Sex Hormones

Estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, SHBG and other relevant markers are interpreted in the context of your age, symptoms, life stage, and treatment goals.

Thyroid Function

Thyroid changes can contribute to fatigue, weight changes, hair changes, temperature sensitivity, mood changes, and other symptoms that can overlap with hormone concerns. We evaluate thyroid function as part of the bigger picture when clinically appropriate.

Inflammatory Markers

Chronic inflammation directly affects how your body metabolizes and responds to hormones. If inflammation is present, we want to know before we build your protocol — not after.

Metabolic & Blood Sugar

Blood sugar, insulin resistance risk, cholesterol, liver and kidney function, and other metabolic markers can influence how you feel and may affect treatment decisions.

Key Vitamins & Minerals

Deficiencies in certain vitamins and minerals directly affect hormone production, energy, mood, and how your body responds to treatment. We assess the markers most relevant to your symptoms and overall hormonal health.

Overseen by Aleasha Elliott, FNP-C
Every hormone protocol at AdoreU is evaluated and managed by a board-certified nurse practitioner — not a wellness coordinator or virtual provider. Your care is clinical.

Hormone Optimization for Women & Men

in O'fallon MO

Personalized Hormone Care Built Around You

Hormone care should be more than checking a lab value and writing a prescription.

At AdoreU, hormone optimization is a structured, ongoing program built around how you feel, your symptoms, your lab results and trends, your goals, and how your body responds to treatment.

We work with both women and men and offer multiple treatment options when appropriate. You do not need to know which hormone is “off” or which treatment you need before you begin.

Treatment Planning is where we figure that out together.

Hormone Optimization For Women

Perimenopause and menopause can affect far more than your menstrual cycle. Changes in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone may influence energy, sleep, mood, cognition, body composition, sexual health, and overall quality of life.

At AdoreU, women’s hormone care is individualized around your symptoms, health history, lab results and trends, goals, and how you respond to treatment. Your plan may include estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid support, or other therapies when appropriate.

Hormone Optimization For Men

Low testosterone and other hormone changes can affect energy, strength, body composition, motivation, sexual health, recovery, and overall well-being.

Our men’s hormone program combines comprehensive lab evaluation, symptom review, individualized testosterone treatment when appropriate, and ongoing monitoring.

Treatment may include testosterone pellets or injectable testosterone depending on your needs, preferences, and treatment plan.

What Hormone Care at AdoreU Looks Like

Comprehensive Assessment

+

Labs

We start by understanding what you are experiencing, your health history, previous treatments, your goals, and the bigger picture of your health.

Laboratory testing helps give us another piece of that picture.

But labs are not interpreted in isolation.

Results Review

+

Treatment Planning

A blood draw is a snapshot—a single moment in time.

Hormones fluctuate. SHBG can affect how much hormone is actually available to your body. Two people can have similar lab values and feel completely different.

That is why we review your results alongside your symptoms, previous lab trends, treatment history, and goals.

Then we discuss what the results mean for you and decide on the next steps together.

Treatment

Begins

Your treatment plan may include estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid support, or other therapies when appropriate.

Hormone pellet therapy is our preferred delivery method for many appropriate patients because it provides consistent hormone delivery without a daily medication to remember or the potential transfer concerns associated with topical hormones.

Other treatment options may include injectable therapy, transdermal patches or creams, oral medications, or compounded therapies when they are a better fit for your individual needs.

You don’t need to know which hormone or delivery method you need before you begin. That’s what Treatment Planning is for.

Ongoing Monitoring

Hormone optimization isn't a one-time prescription.

Your symptoms, treatment response, laboratory trends, and goals are monitored over time so your plan can evolve as your needs change.

Why We Prefer Pellet Therapy

For many appropriate hormone patients, pellet therapy is our preferred delivery method because it provides consistent hormone delivery without a daily medication to remember.

Pellets are placed just beneath the skin during a brief in-office procedure and gradually release hormone over time. For patients who are a good fit, this can make hormone therapy easier to maintain without managing daily creams, patches, pills, or frequent injections.

Why patients may choose pellet therapy

Consistent hormone delivery over time
No daily medication or application to remember
No transfer concerns associated with topical hormone therapy
No frequent injection schedule
Individualized dosing based on symptoms, lab results, health history, and treatment goals
Convenient maintenance for patients who prefer a more hands-off approach

Pellet therapy is not the right fit for every patient. When another delivery method makes more sense, treatment options may include injectable, transdermal, oral, or compounded therapies.

Your treatment plan is individualized around your health, your goals, your response to therapy, and what will realistically work in your life.

Hormone Care Should Fit Your Life

There is no single hormone level or dose that is right for every person.

Age, medications, thyroid function, metabolic health, sleep, stress, body composition, medical history, symptoms, and individual response to therapy can all influence your treatment plan.

That is why we don't treat a lab number in isolation. We look at how you feel, how your labs are trending, how you are responding to treatment, and what has changed since your last visit.

Your hormone plan should evolve as you do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need labs before my hormone assessment?

Yes. Your first visit includes a discussion of your symptoms, health history, concerns, and goals so we can determine which laboratory testing is appropriate. After your labs are completed, you’ll return to review the results and discuss your treatment options.

Do you only offer hormone pellet therapy?

No. Pellet therapy is our preferred delivery method for many patients when clinically appropriate, but it is not the only option. Depending on your individual needs, treatment may also include injectable, transdermal, oral, or other prescription or compounded therapies.

Why does AdoreU prefer hormone pellets?

Pellets provide sustained hormone delivery without a daily dose to remember, making them a convenient option for many patients. Your symptoms, labs, health history, goals, and preferences are considered before determining whether pellet therapy is the right choice for you.

Do you provide hormone therapy for both women and men?

Yes. We provide individualized hormone evaluation and treatment for both women and men. Women commonly seek care for changes related to perimenopause and menopause, while men may be evaluated for symptoms associated with low testosterone.

Will you treat me based only on my lab results?

No. Labs are an important part of the evaluation, but they are only one piece of the picture. We also consider your symptoms, health history, medications, life stage, previous treatment, and goals when developing your plan.

How quickly will I feel a difference after starting hormone therapy?

There is no exact timeline because response to hormone therapy is highly individualized. Some people notice changes sooner, while others may need more time before meaningful improvement occurs.

How you respond can be influenced by many factors beyond hormone levels alone, including sleep, stress, metabolic health, gut health, nutrition, exercise, medications, autoimmune conditions, and other medical concerns.

Hormone therapy may be one part of the solution rather than the entire solution. In some cases, improving symptoms requires a layered approach that addresses several contributing factors over time.

That’s why we monitor your symptoms, laboratory trends, overall health, and response to treatment rather than promising a specific result by a specific date.

The goal is to identify what is contributing to the way you feel and build a plan that evolves with you.

How often will I need follow-up appointments and labs?

Follow-up depends on your treatment plan, the hormones being prescribed, and how you respond to therapy. Repeat labs and follow-up visits are used to monitor both your response and treatment safety.

Is hormone therapy right for everyone?

No. Hormone therapy can have benefits and risks and is not appropriate for every person. Your health history, symptoms, laboratory results, risk factors, and goals are reviewed before treatment is recommended.
