Questions about your wellness journey

Find clear answers to help you understand our telehealth approach and how we can support your hormone health and wellness goals.

Getting Started

What is ReNu’d You and how does it work?

ReNu’d You is a telehealth practice specializing in hormone, peptide, and weight loss therapy. We provide personalized treatment plans based on lab testing and virtual consultations, helping you restore balance, energy, and overall wellness from the comfort of your home.

Do I need lab work before starting treatment?

Yes. Lab testing helps us understand your hormone levels, metabolic health, and nutritional markers. This allows your provider to create a customized plan that targets the root cause of your symptoms for the best results.

Are all appointments virtual?

Yes — all consultations and follow-ups are conducted through secure telehealth visits. This means you can get expert care, prescriptions, and ongoing support without leaving your home.

How long does it take to notice results?

Many patients begin noticing improvements in energy, sleep, and mood within the first few weeks. Full results may take a few months as your body adjusts and begins to rebalance naturally.

What treatments do you offer?

We specialize in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), Peptide Therapy, Testosterone Optimization, and Medical Weight Loss programs — all designed to help you feel your best through customized, science-backed care.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. Schedule a Discovery Call to discuss your goals and symptoms. From there, we’ll order your lab work and create a personalized plan to guide you toward lasting wellness.

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy

What is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are molecularly identical to those your body naturally produces. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are derived from plant sources and precisely match your body's hormone structure.

We use BHRT to restore optimal hormone levels for energy, mood, cognitive function, weight management, and overall vitality. Our approach focuses on early intervention and optimization rather than waiting for severe deficiency.

What is the difference between synthetic and bioidentical hormones?

Synthetic hormones are chemically altered to be patentable and often don't match your body's natural hormone structure exactly. This can lead to side effects and less effective results. Bioidentical hormones are molecularly identical to what your body produces, making them safer and more effective. Your body recognizes and processes them naturally, resulting in better outcomes with fewer side effects.

How do I know if I have a hormone imbalance?

Common signs include persistent fatigue (especially afternoon crashes), unexplained weight gain despite healthy habits, brain fog or memory issues, mood swings or irritability, sleep disturbances, decreased libido, irregular periods (women), hot flashes or night sweats, loss of motivation, and difficulty building or maintaining muscle.

If you're experiencing several of these symptoms in your late 30s or early 40s, hormone optimization may be beneficial.

Is hormone therapy safe?

When properly prescribed and monitored by qualified healthcare providers, bioidentical hormone therapy has an excellent safety profile. We start with conservative doses, monitor your response closely, and adjust as needed.

Regular lab work ensures your levels remain in optimal ranges. The key is working with experienced providers who understand proper dosing, monitoring, and individualized protocols.

Can men benefit from hormone therapy too?

Absolutely! Men experience gradual testosterone decline starting around age 40 (about 1% per year). This can lead to decreased energy, reduced muscle mass, increased body fat, brain fog, mood changes, and decreased libido.

Our testosterone optimization protocols help men in their 40s and early 50s maintain their competitive edge, physical performance, and overall vitality. Early intervention prevents more dramatic decline later.

PCOS Support

What makes your approach to PCOS different?

Our PCOS approach addresses the root hormonal imbalances rather than just managing symptoms. We perform comprehensive hormone testing including insulin, androgens, and inflammatory markers.

Our protocols focus on improving insulin sensitivity, balancing androgens, supporting ovulation, and reducing inflammation. We combine bioidentical hormones with targeted peptides, nutritional guidance, and lifestyle modifications for comprehensive PCOS management that addresses weight, irregular cycles, acne, and metabolic health.

Can you help with PCOS weight loss?

Yes! PCOS-related weight gain is primarily driven by insulin resistance and hormonal imbalances. Our approach combines insulin-sensitizing protocols, hormone optimization, and targeted peptides that specifically address metabolic dysfunction.

Many PCOS clients find traditional dieting ineffective because it doesn't address the underlying hormonal issues. Our comprehensive approach makes weight loss achievable and sustainable.

Weight Loss & Metabolic Optimization

Do you offer weight loss services?

Yes! We provide comprehensive weight management that addresses the hormonal root causes of stubborn weight gain.

Our approach recognizes that weight gain in your 30s and 40s is often driven by hormonal imbalances - insulin resistance, thyroid dysfunction, cortisol dysregulation, and declining sex hormones.

We combine hormone optimization with targeted peptide therapy and personalized nutrition guidance for sustainable results that traditional dieting can't achieve.

Why can't I lose weight like I used to?

As hormones decline in your 30s and 40s, your metabolism slows, muscle mass decreases, and your body becomes more efficient at storing fat. Insulin sensitivity decreases, making it harder to process carbohydrates. Stress hormones like cortisol can promote belly fat storage.

Our approach addresses these underlying hormonal changes, making weight loss achievable again by restoring your metabolic function.

What can I expect for weight loss results?

Results vary based on individual factors, but most clients find weight loss becomes significantly easier once hormones are optimized. During the first 1-3 months, you'll notice improved energy and reduced cravings.

By months 3-6, most clients see 1-2 pounds per week of sustainable weight loss. The key difference is that this weight stays off because we've addressed the root hormonal causes, not just restricted calories.

How is your weight loss approach different from traditional dieting?

Traditional dieting focuses on calories in/calories out, which often fails because it doesn't address hormonal dysfunction. Our approach optimizes the hormones that control metabolism, hunger, fat storage, and muscle building.

We use bioidentical hormones, targeted peptides, and metabolic optimization to restore your body's natural ability to maintain a healthy weight. This creates sustainable results without constant restriction or willpower.

Peptide Therapy

What is peptide therapy?

Peptide therapy uses naturally occurring amino acid sequences (peptides) to optimize various body functions. Peptides are signaling molecules that tell your body to perform specific functions like burning fat, building muscle, improving sleep, enhancing cognitive function, or promoting healing.

We use pharmaceutical-grade peptides tailored to your specific goals - whether that's weight loss, anti-aging, performance enhancement, or recovery optimization.

What are the benefits of peptide therapy?

Peptides offer targeted benefits including accelerated fat loss, improved muscle growth and recovery, enhanced cognitive function and mental clarity, better sleep quality, increased energy and stamina, improved skin elasticity and appearance, faster injury healing, enhanced immune function, and anti-aging effects.

The beauty of peptides is their specificity - we can target exactly what you want to improve.

Are peptides safe?

When properly prescribed and monitored by qualified healthcare providers, peptides have an excellent safety profile. We use only high-quality, pharmaceutical-grade peptides from licensed compounding pharmacies.

Peptides are naturally occurring in your body, so they work with your biology rather than against it. We monitor your progress closely and adjust protocols as needed to ensure optimal results and safety.

How do peptides work for weight loss?

Weight loss peptides work through multiple mechanisms: increasing growth hormone production (which boosts metabolism and fat burning), improving insulin sensitivity (helping your body process nutrients better), reducing appetite and cravings, preserving muscle mass during weight loss, and enhancing fat oxidation.

Popular peptides like Semaglutide, CJC-1295, and Ipamorelin each work differently to support sustainable weight loss.

Can peptides be combined with hormone therapy?

Yes! Combining peptides with hormone optimization often produces superior results. Hormones create the foundation for optimal metabolism and body function, while peptides provide targeted enhancement for specific goals.

For example, optimizing testosterone or estrogen improves overall energy and muscle building, while adding specific peptides can accelerate fat loss or enhance recovery. This synergistic approach is one of our key differentiators.

How long does it take to see results from peptides?

Results vary by peptide type and individual response. Some peptides like appetite-suppressing compounds may show effects within days to weeks.

Growth hormone-releasing peptides typically show benefits in energy and sleep within 2-4 weeks, with body composition changes becoming apparent by 6-8 weeks. Anti-aging and cognitive peptides may take 1-3 months for full benefits. We monitor your progress and adjust protocols for optimal results.

Lab Work & Testing

What lab testing is required?

We order comprehensive hormone panels that go far beyond basic testing. We look at optimal ranges, not just "normal" ranges, and test hormones your regular doctor typically doesn't check. [View our complete lab panel here - LINK TO LAB DETAILS PAGE]

How much do labs cost?

We work to use your health insurance to order labs when applicable. If you don't have health insurance, lab costs are usually $200-$300. We provide all necessary documentation for insurance submission.

How long do lab results take?

Lab results usually take 2-3 weeks to be resulted. We'll review them thoroughly before your initial consultation.

Timeline & Results

How long does it take to see results from hormone therapy?

Most clients notice initial improvements in sleep and energy within 2-4 weeks. Significant changes in weight management, mood, and cognitive function typically occur by months 3-4. Full optimization is usually achieved by 6-9 months.

Appointments & Follow-up

How often will I need follow-up appointments?

Initially, we'll check in every 4-6 weeks to monitor your progress and adjust your protocol. Once optimized, follow-ups are typically every 3 months. All members have access to secure messaging between appointments.

When will I need follow-up labs?

We typically recheck labs at 3 months, then every 6 months once you're optimized. This ensures your levels remain in optimal ranges and your protocol stays effective.

Pricing & Membership

Do you accept insurance?

Our services are typically not covered by insurance as we focus on optimization rather than disease treatment. We provide documentation for potential reimbursement, but coverage is not guaranteed. We do work to use your insurance for lab work when applicable.

How much does treatment cost?

Our membership plans range from $175-325/month and include your medications, regular follow-ups, and ongoing support. We'll discuss the best option for your specific needs during your consultation.

Can I cancel my membership anytime?

All memberships have a 6-month minimum commitment, as this is the minimum amount of time needed to see meaningful results from hormone optimization. After the initial 6 months, memberships can be cancelled with 30-day written notice.

What's included in my membership?

Memberships include your personalized hormone protocol, medications, regular follow-up appointments, secure messaging access, and ongoing support. Peptide therapy and advanced testing are available as add-ons depending on your membership tier.

Our Specialization & Approach

What makes you different from other hormone clinics?

We specialize in early intervention for the 35-45 age group who are just starting to notice changes but are often dismissed by conventional medicine. While other clinics wait for severe symptoms or crisis, we help you get ahead of hormonal decline when treatment is most effective.

We're also unique in combining bioidentical hormones with cutting-edge peptide therapy and comprehensive weight management - optimizing your performance rather than just managing symptoms.

Why focus on the 35-45 age group?

This is the optimal time for intervention - when hormones are beginning to decline but before symptoms become severe. Early intervention leads to better outcomes, easier treatment, and helps prevent the more dramatic changes that occur later.

Most providers tell people this age they're "too young" or their symptoms are "just stress." We recognize this as the perfect time to optimize your health trajectory for the decades ahead.

Do you treat people outside the 35-45 age range?

While our specialty is early intervention for the 35-45 demographic, we do treat motivated individuals outside this range who align with our optimization philosophy.

Our approach works well for anyone seeking proactive, comprehensive hormone and metabolic optimization rather than reactive symptom management.
