Hormone Replacement Therapy in Franklin, TN: A Guide for Women & Men

Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, cortisol — these hormones don't just control reproduction. They shape sleep, mood, memory, muscle, bone density, skin, sex drive, and how well your brain ages. When they drift out of balance, everything downstream drifts with them.

Most patients we see in Franklin come in with a version of the same story: 'I don't feel like myself.' HRT, done well, is often the thing that brings that person back.

Perimenopause can start in your late 30s and stretch through your 50s. Symptoms — poor sleep, mood shifts, weight gain around the middle, brain fog, low libido — often show up long before periods stop.

Bioidentical HRT (estradiol, progesterone, sometimes testosterone) restores levels to a physiologic range. Delivery is usually a patch, cream, or pellet, dosed to your labs and adjusted based on how you feel.

Testosterone naturally declines about 1% per year after 30. For many men, that decline becomes symptomatic in their 40s and 50s — fatigue, low motivation, less muscle, more belly fat, weaker morning erections.

Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), when indicated, is safe and effective. We test broadly (total T, free T, estradiol, SHBG, LH, FSH, hematocrit, PSA), dose conservatively, and monitor carefully.

• Full sex-hormone panel (estradiol, progesterone, total & free testosterone, SHBG, DHEA-S)
• Thyroid: TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3, thyroid antibodies
• Adrenal: cortisol rhythm
• Metabolic: fasting insulin, HbA1c, comprehensive metabolic panel
• Safety markers: CBC, lipids, PSA (men), vitamin D

Most patients feel a meaningful shift in energy, sleep, and mood in 4–6 weeks. Body composition and libido tend to change over 3–6 months. We re-lab at week 8–12 to fine-tune dosing, then every 6 months once you're stable.
