Testimonials
David Jayne MD at Medical Spa in Edmond Oklahoma appreciates each patient and values their input regarding their experience with us. Dr Jayne provides all of the consultations with the patients but the process begins with the exposure to Dr Jayne and his services. Our current patients are the best advertising we have because anyone interested in our services is always interested in what previous patients thought about our care. Most of our patients are very open about telling their family and friends about us because they have noticed a significant improvement in the quality of their life after starting treatment with us.
Frequently they report improved sleep, energy, concentration and recall, weight loss, improved mood, improvements in intimacy and sexual function along with improved workouts and strength.Sometimes the people around them notice these things and ask what they are doing different to account for these changes. Some will say that they “are getting their life back” while some say they don’t remember ever feeling this good before in their life. David Jayne MD at Medical Spa in Edmond Oklahoma realizes that feeling good is very important but it is also very important to become healthier at the same time.
Dr. Jayne has observed over the last 19 years, a reduction in risks in our patients on Bio-identical Hormone replacement therapy for heart attacks, strokes, and dementia compared to patients not on BHRT. He has also seen a significantly lower incidence in breast cancer in women on BHRT and for prostate cancer in men on BHRT. This occurs from the positive metabolic effects from the improvement in your hormone levels. Most people can remember how they felt around age 20. That generally correlates to the healthiest time in most people’s lives which also represents the highest natural hormone levels. I believe this is not coincidence but cause and effect because as you age your hormone production declines and chronic diseases and symptoms become more prevalent and lead to decreased quality of life.
Frequently women in perimenopause and men at andropause start experiencing mood changes including anxiety, depressive symptoms, irritability, problems focusing, chronic fatigue, and loss of interest in things they normally would enjoy. It amazes me the number of people who have seen another doctor who dismissed the possibility their symptoms could be related to suboptimal hormone levels and put them on antidepressant therapy which does not improve their symptoms and frequently exacerbates them.
When David Jayne MD at Medical Spa in Edmond Oklahoma checks their hormone levels they are frequently far lower than optimal levels. If they agree to treatment after discussing risks, benefits, and alternatives to BHRT treatment then improvement in symptoms may occur in a few days to 6 months or more. I frequently hear from patients at their 6 week follow-up visit that the psychological symptoms are resolving and they say “I am not crazy after all” which is the conclusion they reached when the previous doctor only offered them antidepressant therapy for their symptoms.
It is extremely rewarding to help patients regain a quality of life they thought was gone for good. It is a process to recover that begins with a thorough history of their previous health problems and includes a review of their current symptoms and how long they have been present. Current medications, drug allergies, relevant surgeries, and family history are obtained. As the process proceeds at Medical Spa in Edmond Oklahoma baseline labs are drawn and sent out. Details about why the levels will be important for determining treatment are explained. The next appointment will take place when the baseline labs are ready. The results will be discussed in detail and Dr. Jayne will present options for treatment while explaining cost, further labs and visits required as well as medications prescribed. Dr. Jayne stresses the importance of using the replacement therapy consistently as that is what the body responds to best. Most BHRT therapy is dosed either once or twice a day.
Establishing the habit of consistent use of BHRT therapy is the key to unlocking the long term benefits Dr Jayne has observed in his patients. The routines recommended usually take at most, a few minutes once or twice a day. Patients may want to do some baseline body measurements prior to starting BHRT. By doing this, they establish objective evidence that normally improves with treatment and as it does the measurements improve and it provides positive reinforcement to continue consistent therapy. Measurements I recommend are: Total Body fat, Subcutaneous fat, Visceral fat, Bone mass, Muscle mass, metabolic age, fat free body weight, Protein %, Baseline Metabolic Rate and less important are body weight and BMI. There are electronic scales you can buy on Amazon that measure all of these parameters by simply standing on the scale barefoot. Following the trends of those measurements can be encouraging as sometimes your weight and BMI don’t tell the story if your muscle mass is increasing.
David Jayne MD at Medical Spa in Edmond Oklahoma explains that making changes in your activity level, diet, and lifestyle require “baby steps”. Small incremental steps that over time can produce tremendous improvements in your quality of life. If you make too large of a change all at once your body causes you to feel bad and not continue forward. So you should back up and make a smaller change your body will accept without feeling bad. The process is not a sprint but is an ultra marathon so going fast is not the goal. The goal is getting to the metabolic place you are desiring and being able to remain there. This is the prototypical case where the tortoise always wins and the hare always loses.
