Your Hormones Are the Master Key.
“Normal for Your Age” Isn’t the Goal. Optimal Is.
Conventional medicine has a standard for hormone levels. We have a different one. Lab reference ranges are built on population averages, not on what produces peak vitality, mental clarity, and physical performance.
What “optimal physiological levels” means at Arbour Longevity
We don’t treat to population averages. We target the precise range where three measures align:
• How you feel: patients consistently report being at their best
• What we measure: biomarkers reflect genuine, durable health
• How you live: quality of life matches everything you’ve worked to build
That intersection is the standard every Arbour Longevity protocol is built around.
Hormone imbalance rarely announces itself. It shows up quietly, in symptoms most people have learned to accept. Fatigue that sleep doesn’t fix. Muscle loss despite the gym. A mood that’s harder to manage. A mind that won’t quite focus the way it used to.
If that sounds familiar, your hormones may be working against you, not for you. That's exactly what we're here to change.

Benefits, Process & Programs
Do You Recognize Yourself Here?
Hormone imbalance is rarely dramatic. It's the slow accumulation of symptoms that each seems explainable on its own, until you realize they all point to the same root cause.
Women: Common Signs of Imbalance
Experiencing more than three of these symptoms is clinically significant. It's time to look at the full hormonal picture.

Our Process
How Arbour Longevity Approaches Hormone Optimization
Comprehensive Consultation
Your first visit begins with a thorough clinical conversation: symptoms, history, goals, lifestyle. We treat the whole person, never a lab number in isolation. Available in-office or via telehealth.
Full Hormone Panel
We order a complete lab panel through LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics, covering every relevant hormone, a full thyroid picture (including free T3, free T4, and reverse T3), metabolic indicators, and inflammatory biomarkers. Not just TSH. Not just total testosterone. The complete picture, because treating part of it is guesswork.
Precision Protocol Design
Results reviewed in detail. Your protocol is built around your specific physiology, goals, and lifestyle, choosing the right hormones, the right delivery method, and the right dosing for you specifically.
Ongoing Optimization
Hormone therapy isn't a one-size-fits-all prescription. it’s designed for you. We monitor labs regularly, adjust protocols as your body responds, and stay with you through every stage of your optimization journey.
Treatment Options
Every Hormone Modality. One Protocol Built for You
Testosterone Therapy
Injections
Intramuscular or subcutaneous testosterone cypionate: precise dosing, consistent levels, and cost-effectiveness. This gold standard of men's hormone therapy is increasingly requested by women.
BHRT
Pellet Therapy
Bioidentical hormone pellet inserted subcutaneously, delivering consistent hormone levels for 3–6 months without daily administration. Ideal for patients seeking convenience and stability.
Testosterone Therapy
Topical Creams
Compounded testosterone cream is applied daily. Flexible dosing, easy titration, and well-suited for patients who prefer non-injectable delivery.
What We Optimize
Women's Hormones
Estrogen & Progesterone
Bioidentical estradiol and progesterone: oral, topical, or vaginal formulations. Tailored to your cycle status, symptoms, and health history. Perimenopause through post-menopause.
Foundational Hormones
DHEA & Pregnenolone
The precursor hormones that influence testosterone, estrogen, cortisol, and cognitive function. Often overlooked, always included in a complete Arbour Longevity assessment.
Thyroid & Adrenal
Thyroid & Cortisol Optimization
Full thyroid panel including free T3, free T4, and reverse T3. Adrenal function and cortisol rhythm assessment. These hormones are most commonly missed by conventional medicine.
Your Lab Panel
What We Test. Why It Matters.
Your conventional doctor likely ran TSH and total testosterone. We order a complete panel because treating hormones without full context is guesswork.

Common Questions
What Patients Ask Us Most.
Lab reference ranges reflect the average population, which includes a large number of people who are symptomatic, sedentary, or aging without optimization. At Arbour Longevity, we target the range at which patients consistently report peak energy, clarity, and performance. That range is often significantly higher than what a conventional provider considers acceptable.
When prescribed and monitored by a qualified clinician, bioidentical hormone therapy has an a strong safety record when monitored. Every Arbour Longevity patient receives regular lab monitoring to ensure levels remain in the optimal and safe range. We never set and forget. Ongoing oversight is built into every protocol.
Absolutely. Low testosterone in women is one of the most underdiagnosed contributors to fatigue, low libido, cognitive decline, and muscle loss. Our female hormone protocols include testosterone alongside estrogen, progesterone, DHEA, and thyroid, the complete picture that most providers miss.
Most patients notice initial improvements in energy and sleep within 2–4 weeks. Libido, body composition, and cognitive changes typically become evident at 6–12 weeks. Full optimization, where all biomarkers and symptoms align, generally occurs at 3–6 months with appropriate protocol adjustments along the way.
Arbour Longevity operates as a cash-pay practice, which allows us to provide the depth of care and personalization that insurance-based medicine cannot accommodate. We accept HSA and FSA funds, and provide detailed receipts for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Lab orders are sent to LabCorp or Quest, where many patients have partial coverage.
Yes. Initial consultations and follow-up appointments are available via telehealth for patients throughout Michigan. Lab work is ordered to your nearest LabCorp or Quest location. Procedures requiring in-person visits, such as pellet insertion, are performed at our Ann Arbor clinic.
