Comprehensive hormone therapy and lifestyle medicine for women navigating perimenopause and menopause — because you deserve more than being told "this is just aging."
Perimenopause can begin as early as your mid-30s. By the time most women reach their 40s and 50s, they're experiencing dozens of symptoms — from brain fog and insomnia to hot flashes, weight gain, and mood changes — often without ever receiving a proper evaluation.
Too many women are told their labs are "normal," handed an antidepressant, and sent home. Meanwhile, the root cause — hormonal decline — goes unaddressed.
At Stellar Genesis, we take a different approach. We listen, we test, and we treat the whole woman — not just the symptom that showed up loudest in the appointment.
"Many women suffer needlessly for years. The right care — at the right time — can be genuinely life-changing." — Inspired by Dr. Mary Claire Haver, OB/GYN & Menopause Specialist

Menopausal Hormone Therapy is the most effective treatment for vasomotor & genitourinary symptoms — yet remains underutilized
Personalized bioidentical hormone therapy — estradiol, progesterone, and where appropriate, testosterone — tailored to your labs, symptoms, and health history. Oral, transdermal, and vaginal delivery options.
Anti-inflammatory nutrition strategies, targeted supplementation (omega-3s, vitamin D+K2, magnesium, creatine, collagen), and support for the metabolic changes that accompany estrogen decline.
Resistance training 3–4x weekly with progressive overload — the most evidence-backed intervention for preventing muscle loss, improving metabolic rate, and supporting bone density in menopause.
Sleep optimization treated as a vital sign. Cortisol regulation, mindfulness practices, and stress reduction strategies to protect cognitive and mental health during the menopause transition.
Guidance on limiting endocrine-disrupting substances and toxic exposures, following American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) recommendations for whole-person care.
You don't have to check every box. One is enough.
Inspired by the leading evidence in menopause medicine, our approach addresses every system affected by hormonal change — not just the most visible symptom.
Estradiol and progesterone (and testosterone off-label where appropriate) prescribed based on your individual symptom profile, cognitive patterns, and lab work. Vaginal delivery options available for genitourinary symptoms — bypassing liver metabolism for targeted, effective relief.
Strategic use of supplements with evidence behind them for the menopause transition: omega-3 fatty acids for inflammation and cardiovascular protection, vitamin D3+K2 for bone health, magnesium for sleep and mood, creatine for muscle and brain, and collagen for skin, joints, and gut integrity.
Muscle is your metabolic currency. After menopause, women can lose up to 3–5% of muscle mass per year without intervention. We guide you toward progressive resistance training 3–4x per week — the single most powerful lifestyle tool for body composition, metabolism, bone density, and longevity.
Menopause is a neurologically vulnerable window. Elevated cortisol competes with and accelerates hormonal decline, worsens hot flashes, disrupts sleep, and accelerates cognitive decline. We build personalized stress regulation practices — mindfulness, breathwork, and lifestyle pacing — into your care plan.
We treat sleep as a vital sign — not an afterthought. Poor sleep accelerates cognitive aging, disrupts hunger hormones, worsens mood, and impairs every other pillar of your care. We assess your sleep architecture, identify root causes (hormonal, behavioral, structural), and build a targeted plan to restore it. Estrogen decline is one of the most common and overlooked drivers of sleep disruption in midlife.
For women who are doing everything right and still struggling.
Medications like semaglutide work by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone to regulate appetite, slow gastric emptying, and improve insulin sensitivity. Particularly effective for menopause-related weight gain driven by metabolic and hormonal changes.
An FDA-approved appetite suppressant used as part of a comprehensive, supervised weight management plan. Appropriate for short-term use in carefully selected patients as part of a broader lifestyle and hormone optimization strategy.
Menopause changes everything about how your body stores and burns fat. The loss of estrogen shifts fat distribution from the hips to the abdomen, slows metabolism, and alters insulin sensitivity — making weight gain far more common and weight loss far more difficult than it was in your 30s.
Exercise harder. Eat less. It's not that simple anymore — and we know it. For women who are already eating well and moving regularly but still struggling, medication-assisted weight management can be a safe, effective, and evidence-based part of the solution.
At Stellar Genesis, weight management is never a standalone prescription — it's integrated with hormone optimization, nutrition coaching, and movement guidance for sustainable, whole-body results.
A thorough 60-minute intake — your full symptom history, health background, and goals. No rushing. No 10-minute slots.
Hormone panels, thyroid, metabolic markers, and more — so we have the full picture before recommending anything.
Your individualized care plan — hormone therapy, lifestyle pillars, supplementation, and if appropriate, weight management support.
Regular follow-ups, lab rechecks, and protocol adjustments as your body responds. This is a relationship, not a transaction.
At Stellar Genesis, we believe in integrating the best of evidence-based medicine with the wisdom of lifestyle medicine. We prescribe when appropriate, coach always, and listen always. Our approach is grounded in the American College of Lifestyle Medicine's six pillars — nutrition, physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, and positive social connection — layered with the best hormone medicine has to offer.
Cognitive profiles, symptom patterns, and treatment responses vary widely. Your protocol is yours alone.
We follow the latest NAMS, Endocrine Society, and ACLM guidelines — not outdated myths about hormone therapy.
Your health in menopause sets the foundation for the decades ahead. We're here for the long game.
