Patient Info: Your Step-by-Step Guide to Hormone Optimization

At Optimize U Centers, we help you understand your body and regain vitality with personalized, medical hormone optimization plans. Whether you’re new to hormone therapy or seeking clearer guidance on your next steps, this page breaks down everything you need to know — from the first lab draw to long-term progress tracking.

Why Hormone Optimization Matters

Feeling fatigued, struggling with weight, dealing with low libido, mood changes, or trouble sleeping? These are often signs your hormones aren’t where they should be — and they can impact your energy, metabolism, and quality of life.

Our approach begins with understanding your individual biology through medical lab testing, then building a tailored hormone therapy plan that fits your goals and symptoms. Through licensed medical oversight, we ensure your care is safe, effective, and personalized.

What You’ll Get with Our Program

Our hormone optimization programs are built to support you fully.  They include:

We do not take a one-size-fits-all approach — your care is tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Services, treatment options, and pricing may vary by Optimize U location based on state regulations, provider availability, and individual medical needs. Not all services listed may be offered at every clinic. Your personalized care plan and pricing will be reviewed and confirmed with your local Optimize U provider during your consultation.

How the Process Works

Contact Us & Get Started

Find the clinic nearest you using our Locations page. Then, you can get started by booking your initial labs online, calling us, or filling out the web contact form. This will give us the info we need to get started.

Lab Testing & Evaluation

We start with a medical blood panel to assess hormone levels and metabolic markers, giving us the data we need to build your plan. Labs can be drawn at any Optimize U location or at a LabCorp near you.

Doctor Review & Consultation

A licensed provider reviews your labs, discusses your symptoms, and determines if hormone optimization is right for you. This visit can be in-person or via telemedicine.

Personalized Plan Creation

Based on your labs and goals, we design a custom plan that may include hormone therapy, lifestyle guidance, and wellness protocols.

Ongoing Care & Adjustments

Your plan grows with you. We schedule follow-ups, monitor labs every 3–6 months, and adjust treatment as needed to keep you on track.

In addition to hormone optimization, many Optimize U locations provide a range of wellness and performance services designed to support overall health, recovery, and metabolic function. Depending on the clinic, these may include body composition and metabolic testing, IV therapy, fat loss support, and advanced recovery modalities such as red light therapy, compression, cryotherapy, or hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Because Optimize U clinics are independently operated and follow state-specific medical guidelines, services and availability can vary by location. Check out your local clinic’s website to see the full suite of services they offer.  You can also check out your clinic in person and they can walk you through exactly what’s offered and help you build a plan that aligns with your health goals.

You may benefit from hormone optimization if you experience:

  • Persistent fatigue
  • Low libido
  • Unexplained weight gain
  • Mood swings or irritability
  • Trouble sleeping

Your provider will help you interpret your symptoms in the context of your overall health.
