Physician-supervised testosterone replacement and bioidentical hormone therapy for men and women — built on lab work, not guesswork.
Hormone optimization addresses the gradual decline in testosterone, estrogen, and other key hormones that comes with age — often showing up as fatigue, weight gain, low libido, mood changes, and disrupted sleep. At Four Peaks Primary Care and Internal Medicine, Dr. Fayz Yar Khan, MD, FACP offers physician-supervised hormone optimization for both men and women, grounded in comprehensive lab testing, a full clinical history, and ongoing monitoring — not a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Who We Treat
Men — Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)
Low testosterone can present as persistent fatigue, reduced muscle mass, weight gain, low libido, erectile dysfunction, brain fog, and low mood. Diagnosis starts with confirmed low testosterone on morning lab draws — not symptoms alone — along with a full metabolic and cardiovascular risk workup. Treatment options include injectable testosterone, topical gels, and other delivery methods, dosed and adjusted based on your labs and response.
Women — Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
Perimenopause and menopause bring hormonal shifts that can cause hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal dryness, low libido, and sleep disruption. Dr. Khan offers individualized bioidentical hormone protocols — estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone as appropriate — tailored to your symptoms, health history, and risk factors.
What to Expect
Initial consultation: Dr. Khan reviews your symptoms, medical history, and goals, and orders baseline labs — including testosterone, estradiol, thyroid function, a comprehensive metabolic panel, lipids, and other markers relevant to your health history.
Protocol design: Based on your labs and evaluation, a hormone therapy plan is built around the specific hormone(s), dose, delivery method, and monitoring schedule that fit your situation.
Ongoing monitoring: Follow-up labs are typically drawn 6 to 12 weeks after starting therapy, then periodically thereafter, to confirm levels are in a safe and effective range and to adjust dosing as needed.
Why Physician Supervision Matters
Hormone therapy carries real risks when it isn’t monitored — including cardiovascular strain, elevated red blood cell counts, and hormone levels that swing outside a safe range. Many online hormone clinics prescribe based on a questionnaire alone, without in-person evaluation or follow-up labs. At Four Peaks, your protocol starts with a real clinical evaluation, your baseline labs are documented, contraindications are ruled out before you start, and a licensed physician follows your results over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I’m a candidate for hormone optimization?
The best way to know is lab testing combined with a review of your symptoms. Dr. Khan will order the appropriate panel and walk you through what your results mean before recommending any treatment.
Is testosterone therapy safe?
When appropriately dosed and monitored, testosterone therapy is generally well tolerated. Risks include elevated red blood cell counts, potential effects on fertility, and cardiovascular considerations, which is why baseline labs and periodic follow-up are part of every protocol.
How long before I notice results?
Energy and mood improvements are often reported within a few weeks. Changes in body composition and muscle mass typically take three to six months of consistent therapy.
Does insurance cover hormone therapy?
Coverage varies by plan and diagnosis. Diagnostic lab work may be covered depending on your insurance; ongoing hormone therapy is often self-pay. Our office can help you understand your specific costs.
Do I need to be an existing patient to start hormone optimization?
No. New patients are welcome to book a consultation specifically for hormone optimization evaluation.
