The statistics show that only 8% of people actually achieve their resolution goals. Why is it that after a certain, ahem, age, we can’t seem to lose the weight or maintain the weight loss that we may have had in the past?
The answer is simple, yet very frustrating. As we age, both men and women will start to experience symptoms of hormonal imbalance. For men, this is called andropause, and for women, it’s connected to perimenopause, menopause or postmenopause.
Although women take the brunt of the jokes about menopause, the symptoms for males and females are very similar. For men, as they age and their hormonal testosterone levels begin to decline, most men will experience a lack of energy, low libido, loss of muscle, weight gain, decreased mental focus, hair loss and low metabolism.
Females tend to experience an imbalance of estrogen and testosterone, which can lead to hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, depression, brain fog, weight gain, loss of muscle, irritability and bone deficiency.
If we focus on hormone balance along with a healthy diet and exercise plan, the weight will begin to melt away very rapidly. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of confusion and medically unsound practices out there. If weight loss programs and meal replacements or diet pills and supplements have failed you, it’s time to look to NovaGenix.
NovaGenix is highly sought after for both their commitment to mapping out an individualized plan for your specific needs, as well their success rate with satisfied clients.
We’ve heard it a thousand times—Every Person is Different—but it’s true! A ‘one-size fits all’ weight loss strategy will never work for everyone; plans must be customized. Because we know that hormones are often the primary reason for weight gain, treatment must address this issue head-on.
Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
For men and women, changing the hormone levels through bio-identical hormone therapy can alleviate or in many cases eliminate these symptoms and life fluctuations. There are even studies now that suggest bio-identical hormones can help reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia.
Men and women can both benefit from testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) but through different methods. TRT for men is pretty straightforward, and for women, they benefit from bioidentical hormone replacement (BHRT), like pellet therapy, which releases a small amount of testosterone into the body over a few months. Small amounts of testosterone in women, naturally balances the estrogen levels that are causing so many symptoms including weight gain.

HcG Hormone Therapy
HcG, or Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a hormone that supports and aids normal functions in both the male and female’s reproductive systems. HcG in its pure form is what’s known as a glycoprotein. Although pregnant women produce increasing levels of HcG throughout gestation, contrary to popular belief, both men and non-pregnant women produce deficient levels of HcG throughout their lifetime. Studies performed as early as the 1950’s, proved that the HcG diet encourages the elimination of fat cells while on a calorie restricted diet. The HcG diet used with or without the addition of vitamin B12 enables the body to distribute its effects on fat cells rather than muscle tissue.
Benefit of HcG
- Lose up to a pound a day
- Targets hard to reach fat in belly, underarms, hips, and thighs
- Reduces hunger
- Lose inches
