Men’s Health in Missoula, MT
Men’s Health
At FG Aesthetics & Medicine in Missoula, MT, we understand that men’s health is a dynamic and multi-faceted aspect of overall wellness, one that is often impacted by hormone balance, thyroid function, and lifestyle factors. Hormones play a vital role in regulating energy, metabolism, strength, mood, cognitive clarity, and sexual health, making them essential for both daily performance and long-term vitality.
As men age or encounter stress, poor sleep, or dietary challenges, these delicate systems can become disrupted. This may lead to symptoms like fatigue, low libido, weight gain, or mood changes, all of which can interfere with quality of life. That’s why our approach is both proactive and personalized. We focus on identifying the root causes of hormonal and thyroid imbalances, then create custom-tailored treatment plans designed to restore optimal function, enhance energy levels, and support healthy aging from the inside out.
What You Need To Know About Hormonal Imbalances & Thyroid Health
How can hormonal imbalances affect men?
In men, hormonal imbalances can lead to fatigue, low libido, erectile dysfunction, and mood changes. They may also cause muscle loss, weight gain, hair loss, and fertility difficulties. Common contributors include low testosterone (hypogonadism) and thyroid disorders, which can disrupt energy levels, physical performance, and long-term wellness.
What are hormonal imbalances?
Hormonal imbalances happen when there is either too much or too little of a hormone present in the bloodstream. Triggers may include stress, poor diet, aging, or medical conditions. These imbalances interfere with the body’s natural functioning and often lead to fatigue, mood changes, or unexplained weight fluctuations.
What are the common symptoms of thyroid disorders?
Thyroid disorders may present as an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) or underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). Symptoms can include weight changes, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and sensitivity to heat or cold. Hypothyroidism is often linked to weight gain and cold intolerance, while hyperthyroidism is tied to weight loss and heat sensitivity.
How can hormonal imbalances affect women?
In women, imbalances can cause irregular menstrual cycles, menopause symptoms, mood swings, and infertility. Conditions such as PCOS or menopause are common sources of these disruptions.
How are hormonal imbalances treated?
Treatment may include bioidentical hormone therapy, thyroid hormone replacement, nutrition adjustments, and supplementation. These options aim to restore balance and relieve symptoms, helping you feel stronger, healthier, and more energized.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can men suffer from hormonal imbalances?
Men frequently experience imbalances, such as low testosterone, which can cause fatigue, depression, muscle loss, and low libido. Hormone therapy may help restore balance.
How do stress and lifestyle factors contribute to hormonal imbalances?
Chronic stress elevates cortisol levels, which disrupts thyroid and testosterone function. Poor sleep, diet, and a lack of exercise can worsen these imbalances.
Can gut health affect hormone levels?
A healthy gut supports hormone metabolism. An unhealthy gut may contribute to fatigue, mood swings, or even skin problems due to hormonal disruptions.
What is bioidentical hormone therapy?
It uses plant-derived hormones structurally identical to the body’s own, helping to restore balance and reduce symptoms such as fatigue and mood changes.
What role does the thyroid play in men’s health?
The thyroid regulates energy and metabolism. Hypothyroidism decreases metabolism, resulting in fatigue and weight gain, while hyperthyroidism increases it, leading to weight loss and anxiety.
How do I know if I may have a thyroid problem?
Unexplained weight changes, fatigue, and mood disturbances may indicate thyroid dysfunction. Blood tests measuring TSH, T3, and T4 can confirm thyroid health.
