Let’s talk pellets… and the conversation around them.

First, real applause 👏

To the physicians and advocates who’ve challenged fear-based thinking in women’s health and pushed care forward. Because the future isn’t just better labs—it’s fewer cardiovascular events, less despair, and longer, fuller lives.

Here’s what we believe:

Traditional medicine and functional medicine don’t need to battle. They need to meet over coffee.

Pellet therapy hasn’t always been delivered well, and those stories matter. But therapy today isn’t what it was years ago. We can acknowledge past harm and recognize progress. We can look at outcomes, volume, and real-world results.

When we close the door on therapies simply because they’re compounded or not FDA-approved, we risk creating the very fear-based gatekeeping we’re trying to undo—and limiting women’s access to care that helps them feel whole.

Women may follow authority for a season, but ultimately they choose what works for their bodies.

That’s not rebellion.

That’s evolution ☕️

Peptides and traditional medications are often lumped together - but they work very differently.

Most medications are designed to manage symptoms once dysfunction has already occurred.

Peptides work at the level of cellular signaling, supporting the body’s existing communication pathways and natural processes.

Both absolutely have a place in medicine.
The key is understanding how and why each is used - and what the research actually shows.

This is a really big moment in women’s health.

The FDA has officially removed the black box warning from estrogen, and honestly, it’s something worth celebrating.

For over a decade, those of us in functional medicine have been helping women take a closer look at the story they were told about estrogen. Asking better questions. Looking at the actual data. Not just accepting fear based narratives.

Dr. Avrum Bluming’s book Estrogen Matters was a huge turning point in this conversation. It gave many providers and patients the confidence to challenge what we thought we knew and start changing the culture around estrogen care.

Seeing this happen now feels validating. Years of research, advocacy, and patient centered care finally being acknowledged.

If you have ever felt confused or hesitant about estrogen, you are not alone. And this is a great time to revisit the conversation with accurate information and individualized support.

Fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, and poor sleep are often normalized—but they’re not random.

Hormones influence energy, mood, metabolism, and nervous system balance. When they shift, symptoms follow.

At Solutions, we use research and lab testing to bring clarity and personalized care.
Let us show you the research.

Hot flash relief alone doesn’t tell us whether hormone therapy is truly working.

At Solutions Functional Medicine, we look deeper—using research and lab markers like FSH to determine whether estrogen is doing what it’s meant to do: protect the brain, bones, and cardiovascular system.

If you’re “better” but not well, there may be more to the story.
Let us show you the research—and how individualized hormone care should work.

If weight loss feels harder than it should, it’s usually not a willpower issue.

Weight loss is influenced by hormones, metabolism, stress response, sleep, and nervous system regulation. When those systems are out of balance, calorie-focused plans often fail—no matter how consistent you are.

At Solutions Functional Medicine, we use lab data to understand what your body actually needs and build a plan that works with your physiology, not against it.

Let us show you the research—and a more supportive path forward.
