The Hormone and Weight Loss Doctors of NJ offers prescription medication and peptide therapy treatments for medical weight loss including:
- AOD-9604: AOD-9604 decreases body fat in the center of the belly in obese, overweight, and average size bodies, according to recent clinical research studies. AOD-9604 has been shown to efficiently burn fat without causing the body to crave unhealthy foods. It helps to boost fat burning efforts and to restrict new fat from forming in fat cells.
- CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin: When combined, CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin are frequently formulated and recommended to target the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland and significantly raise the body’s amount of human growth hormone (HGH). This peptide boosts the amount of growth hormone released into your body for therapeutic purposes by acting on two different families of receptors
- Mounjaro™: Compared to other related peptide-based weight loss medications, Mounjaro works as both a GIP receptor agonist and a GLP-1 agonist. The human body creates extra hormones, most notably one that is involved in the insulin hormone’s manufacture, to manage hunger. Similar to GLP-1 agonists, GIP receptor agonists were created as a second treatment option for persons with type 2 diabetes. Despite the fact that both medications target somewhat different hormones, they can be used in conjunction with each other to great effect.
- Ozempic®: Because Ozempic slows down digestion, you feel fuller for longer and have less appetite. When combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, this helps to reduce cravings for fatty foods and promote effective weight loss over time. By especially focusing on the hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), Ozempic accomplishes this. Your appetite and blood sugar are naturally regulated by a hormone called GLP-1.
- Semaglutide: As a GLP-1 analogue, semaglutide mimics the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1, which controls blood sugar and hunger in a number of different ways. Blood sugar levels and hunger are impacted by changes in the brain and pancreas. Glucagon-like peptide hormone, or GLP-1, plays a key role. Patients may notice notable weight reduction / fat burning efforts when administered consistently on a weekly basis when paired with healthy lifestyle choices (clean diet, frequent exercise).
- Tesofensine: Due to Tesofensine’s capacity to change hunger levels when regularly taken, many patients choose the drug to aid in effectively achieving weight loss goals. Tesofensine makes the body feel less hungry and is typically administered as an appetite suppressant. Tesofensine is categorized as a pre-synaptic reuptake inhibitor for dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline. When the three neurotransmitter chemicals serotonin, dopamine, and noradrenaline are prevented from being reabsorbed by the central nervous system, the body reacts by feeling less hungry.
- Tirzepatide: Tirzepatide acts in two ways to accomplish two objectives including: reduce appetite and promote satiety (feeling fuller and content with less food). People can expect to lose considerable amounts of weight in a method that is much more manageable when combined with consistent exercise and a healthy diet. It is critical for patients to carefully adhere to the doctor’s recommended regimen in order to achieve the best outcomes from peptide treatment for medical weight loss.
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy BHRT / HRT Offered Includes:
- DHEA: People use DHEA as an anti-aging therapy and to improve their physical performance. DHEA is also used to treat depression and symptoms of menopause.
- Estrogen: Estrogen therapy is a form of hormone replacement therapy that is often used to manage and treat menopausal symptoms.
- Menopause Treatments: Our bio-identical hormone replacement therapy specialists treat menopause with estrogen, progesterone, a combination of the two and other medicines.
- Perimenopause Treatments: Systemic estrogen therapy — which comes in pill, skin patch, spray, gel or cream form — remains the most effective treatment option for relieving perimenopausal and menopausal hot flashes and night sweats. The exact hormone therapy you will receive may be a combination or estrogen and other therapies depending on your age and symptoms.
- Pregnenolone: Pregnenolone is a steroid hormone. Pregnenolone hormone therapy is the use of the hormone pregnenolone for anti-aging and hormonal optimization treatment focused on restoring youthful levels of pregnenolone.
- Testosterone Replacement Therapy (for “Low -T”): Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is a safe and effective treatment to combat symptoms of testosterone deficiency and restore a man’s hormonal health. Common terms for testosterone deficiency include male menopause, andropause, hypogonadism, low testosterone/Low T, and Testosterone Deficiency Syndrome. All of these refer to the same underlying medical issue.
- Testosterone (for women): Testosterone bio-identical hormone replacement therapy for women aims at restoring sexual function and lifting low moods, sleep issues, headaches and tiredness.
