At Tailored Wellness NP, we prioritize the care you truly need—not what insurance dictates. By choosing not to bill insurance directly, we’re able to offer personalized, flexible, and proactive treatment without the limitations of traditional coverage.
If you have out-of-network benefits, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement, and we’re happy to provide a superbill for self-submission. Many of our services also qualify for HSA or FSA use—please confirm eligibility with your account provider.

Hormones play a powerful role in how your body manages weight—especially during perimenopause, when natural shifts can make it harder to feel like yourself. Here’s how hormone optimization can support your weight loss journey:
Metabolism Regulation
Balanced hormones help your metabolism function more efficiently, allowing your body to burn calories more effectively and support fat loss.Sustainable Energy
When your hormones are in harmony, you often feel more energized and motivated to move—whether that’s structured exercise or simply staying active throughout the day.Appetite & Craving Control
Hormones influence hunger and fullness signals. When balanced, you’re less likely to experience intense cravings or emotional eating, making it easier to maintain a healthy relationship with food.Improved Insulin Sensitivity
Optimized hormones can enhance how your body responds to insulin, helping regulate blood sugar levels and reduce fat storage—especially around the midsection.Muscle Preservation
Hormones like testosterone and growth hormone support lean muscle mass, which boosts your resting metabolic rate. More muscle means you burn more calories, even at rest. -
The timeline for feeling better on bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) varies from person to person. Some patients notice subtle improvements—like better sleep or clearer thinking—within days to weeks, while full benefits often develop over three to six months.
Your results depend on several factors, including your specific symptoms, the method of hormone delivery (such as creams, pills, or injections), your body’s unique response, and lifestyle factors like stress, sleep, and nutrition. As your hormone levels stabilize, you may experience more energy, improved mood, mental clarity, better libido, and relief from symptoms like hot flashes or night sweats.
If you’re not noticing changes within a few weeks, we’ll work closely with you to adjust your plan. Ongoing monitoring ensures your treatment stays aligned with your goals and needs.

At Tailored Wellness NP, we use ShapeScale, a 3D body scanning technology that provides a detailed, visual snapshot of your body composition over time. Unlike a traditional scale, ShapeScale shows changes in fat, muscle, and measurements—so you can see progress even when the number on the scale doesn’t move.
This tool is especially helpful for tracking non-scale victories like improved muscle tone, fat loss, and body reshaping. It helps us fine-tune your plan with precision and gives you a powerful, visual way to stay motivated and celebrate your transformation.
