How Testosterone Therapy Helps Traverse City Women Think Sharper and Feel Stronger

The hormone every woman should know about—but probably hasn’t heard enough about

When it comes to hormone therapy, most people associate testosterone with men. But here’s the surprising truth: women naturally produce—and need—testosterone too. In fact, over a woman’s lifetime, she produces more testosterone than estrogen.

And when those levels drop, symptoms like brain fog, low libido, and chronic fatigue often follow.

At RegenCen in Traverse City, we see it every day: women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who feel “off,” but can’t figure out why. In many cases, the missing link is testosterone.

“What most women don’t realize is that we actually make more testosterone than estrogen across our lifespan,” says Courtney Lo, founder of RegenCen. “It’s a vital hormone for mental sharpness, motivation, confidence, and memory.”

Cognitive Clarity: The Brain Fog Breakthrough

Brain fog isn’t just an annoying phase—it’s a sign of hormonal imbalance.

Women often describe it as:

• Forgetting names
• Losing their train of thought
• Struggling to multitask
• Feeling mentally “dull” or detached

“These aren’t just signs of aging,” says Courtney. “They’re often signs that testosterone has dropped below optimal levels.”

At RegenCen Traverse City, we use testosterone therapy to restore mental clarity and energy—often with life-changing results.

Mood, Motivation, and That ‘Zest for Life’

Low testosterone doesn’t just cloud your brain. It can also dull your mood and kill your drive—at work, at home, in relationships.

“Testosterone plays a huge role in resilience, motivation, and even confidence,” says Courtney. “When it’s low, women describe feeling flat, disconnected, or just off. And when we restore it, the difference is night and day.”

Unlike antidepressants that mask symptoms, testosterone targets the root cause. That’s why Courtney believes hormone testing should be the first step—not the last—when a woman in her 30s or 40s reports sudden anxiety, low mood, or burnout.

Testosterone and Your Sex Drive

Loss of libido is one of the most common complaints in perimenopause and menopause—and testosterone is a big reason why.
In Traverse City, many of our patients come in thinking it’s just stress or aging. But after testing and treatment, the results speak for themselves.

“Women often say, ‘I thought that part of me was just gone.’ But once we optimize testosterone, their sex drive and connection returns—sometimes better than ever,” says Courtney.

Muscle, Metabolism, and Long-Term Strength

Optimizing testosterone isn’t just about how you feel now—it’s about aging stronger.

Benefits include:

• Preserving muscle mass
• Supporting bone density
• Improving metabolism
• Preventing frailty as you age

At RegenCen, we believe your 40s, 50s, and beyond should feel strong—not sluggish.
