Spring is in the air! The flowers are blooming, the days are growing longer, and there’s a renewed sense of energy all around us. It’s the perfect time for a fresh start—not just for your home or garden, but for your health, too. Over my 35 years of practicing medicine at the Hotze Health & Wellness Center, I’ve seen firsthand how the change of seasons can stir up more than just pollen—it can throw your hormones into a tailspin. If you’re feeling sluggish, moody, or just “off” despite the promise of spring, it might be time to consider a little spring cleaning for your hormones. And I’m not talking about synthetic drugs or quick fixes. I’m talking about the natural, restorative power of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
You might not realize it, but seasonal changes can wreak havoc on your hormone balance. The longer days and warmer weather signal your body to shift gears—your metabolism ramps up, your energy demands increase, and your adrenal glands kick into overdrive to keep up. For many of my guests (that’s what we call our patients here), this transition exposes underlying imbalances that have been simmering beneath the surface.
Maybe your thyroid isn’t producing enough hormones to fuel your springtime vitality. Perhaps menopause has left you with hot flashes that feel worse in the heat, or low testosterone has sapped the strength you need to enjoy the outdoors. These aren’t just “signs of aging”—they’re signs your hormones need a tune-up.
Take hypothyroidism, for instance. I’ve treated thousands of women and men who come to me feeling exhausted, foggy-headed, and cold all the time—even in spring! Mainstream medicine often misses this because it relies on outdated lab ranges instead of listening to how you feel. Or consider menopause: the drop in estrogen and progesterone can turn spring’s renewal into a season of irritability and sleepless nights. For men, low testosterone might mean you’re dreading that golf game instead of leaping out of bed to hit the course. These imbalances don’t just rob you of your health—they steal your joy.
And here’s the good news: you don’t have to live with them.
Hormonal imbalances don’t always announce themselves with flashing neon lights. Often, the signs are subtle at first—easy to dismiss as stress, aging, or just a “bad week.” But when left unaddressed, they compound over time, leaving you feeling like a shell of your former self. Here’s a list of common symptoms to watch for in both women and men:
If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to listen to your body. These symptoms aren’t just part of getting older. They’re signals—your body’s way of telling you that something’s off and needs to be addressed.
At Hotze Health & Wellness Center, we’ve spent over three decades helping people reclaim their vitality with a simple, natural approach: bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Unlike synthetic hormones pushed by Big Pharma, bioidentical hormones are derived from plant sources and chemically identical to what your body produces. They fit your hormone receptors like a key in a lock, restoring balance without the nasty side effects of artificial drugs.
For hypothyroidism, we use bioidentical thyroid hormone to bring your metabolism—and your energy—back to life. I’ve seen guests go from dragging through their days to feeling like their old selves again, ready to tackle spring projects with gusto. For women in menopause or perimenopause, bioidentical estrogen and progesterone can smooth out those mood swings, cool down the hot flashes, and help you sleep through the night. And for men with low testosterone, BHRT can rebuild muscle strength, sharpen mental focus, and reignite that spark of vitality—just in time to enjoy the season.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can also support:
Your body was designed to function in harmony, with each hormone playing a unique role. When one hormone falls out of sync, the whole system suffers. BHRT restores that harmony by replenishing what your body is missing—in the exact way it was originally designed to produce it.
Think of BHRT as a spring cleaning for your body. Just as you’d clear out clutter to make your home feel fresh, bioidentical hormones clear out the fatigue, brain fog, and frustration that hormonal imbalances leave behind. But here’s the key: it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. At our center, we take the time to listen to your symptoms, run comprehensive tests, and craft a personalized plan that honors how God designed your body to work. We don’t mask problems with pills—we address the root cause.
Spring is a season of renewal, and it’s the perfect time to ask yourself: Am I living with the energy and joy I deserve? If the answer is no, don’t wait. Hormonal imbalances don’t fix themselves, and they often worsen with time—especially as seasonal shifts put extra stress on your system. Whether it’s hypothyroidism slowing you down, menopause throwing you off balance, or low testosterone dimming your drive, bioidentical hormones can help you take back control.
