			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people attribute constant and chronic fatigue, low libido, poor sleep, moodiness, weight gain, loss of muscle tone, poor sleep, and mental fogginess to &#8220;just getting old.&#8221;  But blaming age may not be all correct since hormone deficiencies may be the cause.</p>
<p>&#8220;Once we identify reduced hormones, we then optimize.  And after that, we see profound clinical responses &#8211; more energy, weight loss, improved skin texture, better sleep, enhanced libido and sexual performance, mood elevation, motivation, and mental clarity, &#8221; Dr. Randy Birken said.  &#8220;We can&#8217;t stop aging, but we can improve overall vitality and well-being.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston as well as a board certified and <em>Cenegenics Medical Institute</em> physician.  He has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.</p>
<p>Bioidentical hormones can be given as capsules, transdermal creams and gels, injections, and under the skin pellets.</p>
<p>&#8220;We customize our prescription hormone regimen,&#8221; Dr. Birken continued.  &#8220;This individualization is based on each patient&#8217;s unique physiology, metabolism, and lifestyle.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For some women, childbirth creates anatomic changes in both vaginal contour and labia.  This can lead to vaginal looseness, reduced intimacy, as well as irritation from exercise and compromised aesthetics.</p>
<p>Dr. Randy Birken is a board certified gynecologist and Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston, Texas.  He is a member of the <em>Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of America</em> and has trained with Dr. David Matlock in Beverly Hills, California.</p>
<p>&#8220;The laser approach offers a more precise technique,&#8221; Dr. Birken said. &#8220;Patients heal quicker and with less discomfort.&#8221;</p>
<p>Laser vaginal rejuvenation and laser labiaplasty can improve vaginal tightness and subsequently enhance intimacy while changing the appearance of stretched and elongated labia.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why is it more difficult to lose weight as we age?</p>
<p>&#8220;Hormones play a major role,&#8221; Dr. Randy Birken said.  &#8220;Patients become frustrated when they diet and exercise and still can&#8217;t shed the pounds.&#8221;</p>
<p>By optimizing hormones and using the HCG injection hormone, patients lose fat and not muscle mass.</p>
<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s the key, &#8221; Dr. Birken continued.  &#8220;When you diet and lose both fat and muscle, it&#8217;s hard to keep if off in the long run.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston, Texas and has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.  He is a board certified and <em>Cenegenics Medical Institute</em> physician.</p>
<p>&#8220;HCG changes how one loses weight,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;Patients lose fat and not muscle.  They look good and can keep the weight off with the right ratio of muscle to fat.&#8221;</p>
<p>While an off label use, HCG as been used successfully to help patients lose weight along with proper diet, effective exercise, correct supplementation, and with hormone optimization.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As we age, our body and mind change: fatigue, weight gain, loss of muscle mass, poor sleep, sagging skin, lowered libido, mental fog and compromised memory, reduced motivation, and moodiness.  We blame getting older, but why does this happen?</p>
<p>&#8220;Many factors are contributors,&#8221; Dr. Randy A. Birken said,  &#8220;but decreasing hormone levels are one of the major players.&#8217;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston, Texas and has medical practices in The Woodlands, Texas and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.  He is a board certified and <em>Cenegenics Medical Institute</em> physician.</p>
<p>&#8220;Once we optimized lowered hormones in men and women, &#8221; Dr. Birken continued, &#8220;we see dramatic changes.  More energy and motivation, weight loss, improved muscle tone as well as libido and sexual performance.  Additionally, patients sleep better and have enhanced moods with greater mental clarity.  It is most gratifying as a physician to see these improvements in our patients and I know the risks for aged related diseases are reduced as well.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken has studied the benefits that bioidentical hormones offer but is passionate about customizing hormones per individual.</p>
<p>&#8220;There is no cookie cutter way to administer hormones,&#8221; he continued.  &#8220;We all have a different physiology, metabolism, and life style that must be included in designing the right hormone program.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken embraces the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy as a alternate to more conventional creams and oral preparations.</p>
<p>&#8220;I like the even and sustained levels we get with pellets, and clinically, patients feels better as a result of the pellet&#8217;s balanced approach.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Unlike a surgical face lift, lasers, dermal fillers, and neuromodulators like BOTOX and Dysport can make a patient look fresher, younger, and more attractive without the downtime, expense, or recovery from surgery,&#8221;  Dr. Randy Birken, a board certified physician and associate of <em>The American Academy of Cosmetic Surgeons</em> said.</p>
<p>&#8220;By looking at the face as a whole, improvement in skin texture, tightening, discoloration, and wrinkles is possible with little or no pain, &#8221; Dr. Birken continued.</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston, Texas.  His medical practice is in The Woodlands, Texas.</p>
<p>Lasers can improve overall facial tone, dermal fillers can lift and soften wrinkles, and neuromodulators like <em>BOTOX</em> and the new<em> Dysport</em> can reduce facial and neck wrinkles.  D.r Birken uses the Cutera laser for tightening and reduction of sun damage.  Fillers include <em>Restylane</em>, <em>Perlane</em>, and <em>Artefill</em>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In order to lose weight successfully, its important to reduce fat and maintain muscle mass.</p>
<p>&#8220;Its difficult to do this without resetting your appetite and metabolic thermostats, Dr. Randy Birken, a board certified and <em>Cenegenics Medical Institute</em> physician said.  &#8220;When patient&#8217;s diet, they lose fat and muscle mass creating not only a gaunt appearance, but a set up to regain the weight.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston, Texas</p>
<p>&#8220;HCG hormone, along with optimization of all hormones, allows the patient to lose weight effectively with proper diet and exercise,&#8221; Dr. Birken continued.  &#8220;We have many patients who now lose weight with HCG and the HCG diet when conventional dieting has failed.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken counsels patients about proper food intake, effective physical activity, and checks reproductive as well as metabolic hormones that may diminish with age.</p>
<p>&#8220;Patients have more energy, better sleep, improved motivation, and overall increase in vitality and well being.   They feel healthy, look good, and want to maintain that new self-esteem.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dr. Randy Birken was on the Debra Duncan&#8217;s <em>Great Day Houston</em> show on January 19th to discuss the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy.</p>
<p>&#8220;It was a excellent opportunity to enlighten the viewing audience about the numerous health benefits from the SottoPelle® method of hormone pellet therapy, &#8221; Dr. Birken said.  &#8220;My patient, Carol, graciously volunteered to appear on the show with me and Dr. Gary Donovitz to discuss her clinical successes with the pellets.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> and a board certified and <em>Cenegenics Medical Institute</em> physician.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was able to discuss the improvements in energy, mental clarity, mood elevation, enhanced libido, better sleep, improved skin tone and texture as well as weight loss.  Carol affirmed her clinical responses with bioidentical hormones as well.&#8221; Dr. Birken continued.  &#8220;If there was more time, I would have talked my own personal health benefits with bioidentical hormones and that I feel better today at the age of 61 than I did twenty years ago!&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Losing weight can be difficult and frustrating for many.  While exercising and eating well, some still can&#8217;t lose the fat and keep it off.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hormones play a major role in metabolism,&#8221; Dr. Randy Birken said.  &#8220;Optimizing low hormones can change one&#8217;s physiology and allow a patient to not only lose weight but to maintain muscle mass, the key to effective dieting.&#8221;</p>
<p>Dr. Birken is a board certified and <em>Cenegenics Medical Institute</em> physician as well as Clinical Assistant Professor at <em>Baylor College of Medicine</em> in Houston, Texas.</p>
<p>HCG injection and HCG diet can change the metabolic functions and allow patients to lose fat and keep it off.</p>
<p>&#8220;We prescribe HCG along with other metabolic enhancers,&#8221; Dr. Birken continued.  &#8220;And by elevated low hormone levels, teaching effective exercise, and educating on the right food intake, patients become successful in their healthy and natural weight loss pursuits while increasing their vitality as well as self-esteem.</p>
