Fatigue, Brain Fog, or Hot Flashes? Hormone Therapy in East Lansing Can Help
If you’ve been feeling more exhausted than usual, struggling to think clearly, or waking up drenched from night sweats, you’re not alone. Symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, hot flashes, and low libido are often signs of hormone imbalance—and they can leave you feeling like a different version of yourself.
At RegenCen’s new East Lansing clinic, which opened in June 2025, we help men and women restore balance and energy through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (HRT), including convenient pellet therapy. Our care is physician-led and personalized, designed to address the real-life symptoms that disrupt your daily life.
Many patients describe HRT as life-changing.
It’s not uncommon to hear: “I’m a totally different person since I’ve started hormone replacement therapy” or “HRT saved my life.”
These transformations are exactly why RegenCen East Lansing exists—to help patients move from struggling with symptoms to living with energy, clarity, and confidence.
The East Lansing location holds special meaning for Dr. Gustav Lo, Founder & Chief Medical Officer of RegenCen, who grew up here and earned his medical degree from Michigan State University.
“Opening a clinic in East Lansing feels like coming full circle,” says Dr. Lo.
“This community shaped both my personal and professional life, and I’m proud to return with a clinic that focuses on what I believe matters most in medicine today: helping people feel better for longer, with treatments that actually work.”
What Is Bioidentical Pellet Therapy?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses plant-derived hormones that are chemically identical to those your body naturally produces. With pellet therapy, these hormones are compressed into tiny pellets—smaller than a grain of rice—and placed just under the skin. From there, they steadily release into your bloodstream over several months.
Unlike pills, creams, or patches, pellets provide consistent hormone levels without the daily ups and downs. Many East Lansing patients prefer this option because it feels more natural, convenient, and reliable.
And if pellets aren’t the right fit for you? RegenCen also offers topical hormone creams as an alternative. This flexibility allows our team to create a treatment plan that works best for your lifestyle, preferences, and health goals.
Who Benefits From Pellet Therapy in East Lansing? Relief for Fatigue, Hot Flashes & Low Libido
Hormone imbalance can affect both women and men—often earlier than expected.
- For Women: Perimenopause and menopause symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, low energy, and weight gain can impact daily life and long-term health. Pellet therapy offers steady estrogen and progesterone support to ease symptoms and protect bones and the heart.
- For Men: Testosterone declines gradually starting in the 30s. For some, the drop brings fatigue, stubborn belly fat, brain fog, low libido, and muscle loss. Testosterone pellet therapy helps restore vitality, clarity, and sexual health. If you’ve noticed these symptoms creeping in, it may be time to check your hormone levels.
The Benefits of Pellet Therapy: Steady Energy, Better Sleep & Renewed Confidence
East Lansing patients often choose pellet therapy for both its effectiveness and convenience. Some of the most common benefits include:
- Consistent relief without daily fluctuations.
- Convenience —pellets last 3–4 months for women, 4–6 months for men.
- Improved energy and mood for more productive days.
- Better sleep and focus—often one of the first improvements noticed.
- Renewed intimacy and sexual health.
- Long-term wellness benefits, including support for bone, heart, and brain health.
