Real Solutions for Perimenopause in Fenton

Why Hormone Therapy + Targeted Care at RegenCen Fenton Can Help You Feel Your Best

Women across Fenton and Genesee County navigating perimenopause are often told that eating well and staying active is enough to manage this life stage. While nutrition, exercise, and mindfulness are essential for overall wellness, they cannot correct the root cause of many perimenopause symptoms: hormonal imbalance.

“Perimenopause and menopause aren’t simply lifestyle challenges,” says Courtney Lo, Founder and CEO of RegenCen. “They are medical conditions driven by shifting hormone levels. That’s why true relief requires more than diet and self-care.”

Courtney speaks from experience. After building one of the nation’s leading aesthetic and regenerative medical centers, she expanded her work to include hormone optimization — especially after confronting her own difficult menopause journey.

“I experienced nearly every symptom — night sweats, insomnia, palpitations, hair thinning, fatigue — you name it,” she says. “Hormone therapy changed everything for me. It’s life-changing care that far too many women still don’t know is available.”

Perimenopause Myths — and What Women in Fenton Need to Know

One common misconception is that perimenopause begins only once periods stop completely. In reality, hormonal fluctuations can begin in your 30s or early 40s — long before menopause is officially diagnosed.

“Perimenopause can last a decade,” explains Courtney. “During this time, estrogen spikes and crashes while progesterone and testosterone steadily decline. That rollercoaster is what drives many of the symptoms women feel.”

Another myth? That women must wait until menopause to start treatment. “That’s outdated advice,” says Courtney. “If you’re struggling with mood swings, poor sleep, brain fog, low libido, or fatigue — you deserve support now.”

Why Healthy Living Alone Won’t Resolve Hormone Imbalance

At RegenCen Fenton, we encourage women to embrace a healthy lifestyle. We recommend blood sugar-friendly eating, strength training, limiting alcohol, and prioritizing restorative sleep.

However — these strategies alone will not restore optimal hormone levels. “I love green smoothies and yoga as much as anyone,” says Courtney. “But they won’t correct a testosterone or estrogen deficiency. You can’t lifestyle your way out of hormone loss.”

As with advanced skin treatments, sometimes targeted medical intervention is required. “It’s like expecting a topical cream to do what a neuromodulator can do — they’re in completely different categories of care,” she adds.

How Bioidentical Hormone Therapy in Fenton Can Help

For women experiencing hot flashes, mood changes, memory issues, or low energy, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is the most effective solution. Our goal is to restore your natural hormone levels to the optimal range — helping you feel balanced, energized, and well.

“Replacing your own hormones is a completely natural approach,” says Courtney. “We’re not trying to create superwoman levels — we’re restoring what was lost.”

One often-overlooked component is testosterone. “When women tell us they can’t multitask like they used to or that their mental clarity is gone — that’s often low testosterone at work,” explains Courtney. “Rebalancing testosterone can quickly lift that mental fog.”

Beyond symptom relief, HRT provides long-term health benefits, supporting bone density, cognitive function, and cardiovascular health.

A Proactive Approach for Women in Fenton

The best time to evaluate your hormones is before severe symptoms appear. Courtney recommends testing in your 30s or early 40s to establish a personal baseline.

“It’s empowering to know where you stand,” she says. And it’s equally important to choose an experienced provider who specializes in hormone therapy — that’s what we offer at RegenCen Fenton.”
