Hormone and Weight Loss Support Near Country Life Acres, MO
If you live in Country Life Acres and are feeling off—physically or mentally—it might be time to look beyond surface-level solutions. Symptoms like low energy, unwanted weight gain, mood swings, or brain fog can be signs that your hormones are out of balance.
At the St. Louis Hormone Institute of Missouri, Dr. Kenton Bruice helps patients get to the root of these changes with personalized care plans grounded in medical insight.
A Smarter Approach to Hormone Health
Hormones are your body’s chemical messengers, influencing everything from sleep and mood to metabolism and libido. When they are out of sync, you feel it—but most people are left with generic advice or medication that never fully works.
Dr. Bruice offers bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), which uses hormones that are structurally identical to those your body produces naturally. His treatment plans are tailored based on in-depth lab testing, your symptoms, and your health goals.
He treats:
- Women experiencing perimenopause or menopause
- Men with symptoms of low testosterone
- Individuals with adrenal fatigue or thyroid dysfunction
- People who cannot lose weight despite doing everything “right”
Medical Weight Loss With a Root-Cause Focus
If you have tried dieting and exercise with little progress, your hormones could be working against you. Dr. Bruice evaluates your complete health picture, including insulin resistance, thyroid levels, and metabolic function, to build a weight loss plan that makes sense for your body.
When appropriate, he may recommend compounded semaglutide with B12 (cyanocobalamin) to help support appetite regulation and sustainable fat loss.
Patients often say this is the first time they’ve had a plan that feels realistic—and results that actually last.
