Minnesota Hormone Replacement Therapy Services
Premature Aging is a major health issue that is heavily impacted both by lifestyle and hormone imbalance. Many aspects of the aging process are directly related to hormone concentrations in our bodies, and Hormone Deficiency and Imbalance is actually one of the primary mechanisms by which the human body ages.
The Conscious Evolution Institute is a Licensed Medical Clinic which provides Hormone Replacement Therapy options to men and women over the age of thirty that live in Minnesota as well as anywhere in the United States. We provide a number of services, including HGH Replacement Therapy and Testosterone Replacement Therapy, that are designed to restore optimal hormone balance in order to help you live a more active and enjoyable life full of vitality.
Minnesota Low-T Treatment
Everyone's heard of Menopause, but did you know that men go through a similar change during middle age? As men grow older, they start to experience a condition known as Andropause, in which Testosterone Concentrations in the human body have declined to a point where physiological function starts to deteriorate as a direct result. The most noticeable symptoms of Low-T are Erectile Dysfunction and Loss of Libido, but Testosterone Deficiency can have a destructive impact on male health.
Andropause and Low-T can be treated very effectively via a method known as Testosterone Hormone Replacement Therapy. By replacing the body's dwindling reserves of Testosterone, it is possible to relieve the symptoms associated with Low-T, including fatigue, weight gain, loss of strength, depression and anxiousness, increased cholesterol, sexual dysfunction, and hypertension.
Minnesota HGH Injection Therapy
Human Growth Hormone Deficiency impacts both men and women, and can have a negative impact on health and wellness, in addition to contributing heavily to premature aging. HGH is a vital hormone released by the pituitary which stimulates the replication and division of human cells. When we are young, our bodies produce high levels of this hormone, stimulating the growth associated with puberty. After puberty, our bodies produce enough of the hormone to sustain normal and youthful processes.
Starting around the age of thirty, however, our bodies start to produce less and less of this hormone, which can eventually lead to a number of medical issues associated with aging, including weight gain, loss of muscle density, weaker bones, depression, diabetes, depressed cognitive function, reduced healing capacity and reduced exercise capacity.
For men and women suffering from Age-Related HGH Deficiency (also known as Somatopause), HGH Injections can safely restore optimal Adult Growth Hormone Levels, stimulating the body to function at peak capacity.
Minnesota Sermorelin HGH Alternative
The Conscious Evolution Institute also provides an alternative form of treatment known as Sermorelin Acetate Therapy which naturally preserves and optimizes the body's ability to produce natural Human Growth Hormone. Both forms of treatment are highly effective, ask our doctors which is right for you!
Minnesota HCG Weight Loss Injections
Not all forms of Hormone Replacement Therapy are aimed at Hormone Restoration. In many cases, hormones can be used explicitly as a form of medical treatment. HCG Injections are a clinically certified method to lose weight quickly and safely.
HCG is an effective weight loss aid because it encourages weight loss in three different ways. First, it encourages the body to burn adipose fat tissue. Second, it suppresses hunger, making it easier to stick with the diet plan. Third, it provides a steady stream of energy, preventing the feelings of exhaustion normally associated with significant caloric restriction.

The territorial legislature created Olmsted County on February 20, 1855, with Rochester named county seat in 1857.

On August 21, 1883, the Great Tornado demolished much of Rochester, leaving 37 dead and about 200 injured. There was no medical facility at the time, so Mayo and his two sons worked together to care for the wounded. Donations of $60,000 were collected and the Sisters of St. Francis, assisted by Mayo, opened a new facility named St. Marys Hospital in 1889. The Mayo practice grew and is today among the largest and most well-respected medical facilities in the world. Many famous people from around the world, including former Presidents George H.W. Bush, Gerald Ford, have visited Rochester as patients of the Mayo Clinic.
