Our clinic at 275 W 200 N in Lindon sits right off I-15, a short drive for patients from Orem, Provo, Pleasant Grove, American Fork and Lehi. If you're considering hormone therapy, here's what the process looks like.
Step 1: Consultation
We start with a conversation about your symptoms (sleep, mood, energy, hot flashes, libido, weight, cycles), your medical and family history, and what you want to feel like. Many patients complete our hormone quiz beforehand to organize their thoughts.
Step 2: Lab work
Depending on your situation, labs may include estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, metabolic markers, a blood count and vitamin levels. Labs help rule out other causes and give us a baseline for safe dosing.

Step 3: Your treatment plan
- Women: estrogen, progesterone and sometimes low-dose testosterone, delivered as patches, creams, capsules or pellets. See our guides on perimenopause symptoms and PCOS.
- Men: testosterone therapy or fertility-preserving options, explained in our low testosterone guide.
- Supporting care: nutrition, sleep and, when helpful, medical weight loss.
Step 4: Follow-up
Most patients notice changes within a few weeks, with fuller benefits over two to three months. We recheck symptoms and labs and adjust dosing so you feel your best on the lowest effective dose.
