How Functional Medicine for Men’s Health Works

Thorough Discovery and Testing

We start with a detailed intake to understand symptoms, lifestyle choices, and health goals. When needed, we use advanced diagnostics to evaluate metabolic health, lipid particles, inflammation, nutrient status, thyroid function, potential sleep issues, gut health, and hormone balance. This builds an objective baseline for improving overall health and preventing disease.

Importance of a Healthy Lifestyle

Adopting a healthy diet and regular exercise routine is crucial for maintaining men’s health. Incorporating fitness activities and balanced nutrition can reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and prostate cancer.

Health Screenings and Checkups

Regular health screenings and checkups are essential for early detection of potential health issues such as high blood pressure, stroke, and cancer. Men should prioritize appointments with their healthcare providers to stay informed about their health status.

Tips for a Healthier Life

Here are some tips to improve men’s health: limit alcohol consumption, quit smoking, maintain a healthy weight, and foster positive relationships. These lifestyle choices can lead to better mental health and overall well-being.

Targeted, evidence informed plan

Your personalized plan can include nutrition tailored to biomarkers, exercise programming for strength and cardiometabolic health, sleep coaching, stress reduction, and supplementation with supportive nutrients. When appropriate, we discuss therapies such as testosterone replacement therapy for documented hypogonadism, peptide protocols under clinician supervision, and sexual wellness strategies for ED and performance concerns. We emphasize safety, monitoring, and shared decision making.

Ongoing optimization

We track outcomes, recheck key labs, and adjust your plan. The aim is sustainable results in energy, libido, mood, strength, metabolic markers, and preventive risk reduction.

Frequently Asked Questions​

What is Functional Medicine for Men’s Health?

Functional medicine is a systems-focused approach that investigates the root causes behind symptoms such as low energy, erectile dysfunction, weight gain, and poor recovery. It employs advanced testing, evidence-informed lifestyle strategies, and targeted therapies to optimize hormones, metabolism, sleep, and cardiovascular health. This integrated plan aims to improve overall men’s health by addressing issues like heart disease, diabetes, and mental health, while promoting a healthy lifestyle through proper diet and exercise. Regular health screenings and checkups are essential to prevent serious illnesses, including prostate cancer and high blood pressure, while also providing valuable health information. By making informed lifestyle choices and prioritizing physical activity, men can protect themselves against leading causes of death and enhance their quality of life.

How is this different from conventional care?

Conventional care often treats conditions in isolation. Functional Medicine for Men’s Health connects the dots between hormones, metabolic markers, inflammation, sleep, stress, gut health, and movement, then builds a personalized plan with ongoing measurement and adjustment. This approach recognizes the importance of a healthy lifestyle, including proper diet, regular exercise, and mental health, to improve overall well-being. By focusing on prevention and addressing lifestyle choices, men can reduce the risk of diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and prostate cancer. Regular health screenings and checkups are essential for early detection of issues and maintaining optimal health.

What conditions can it help with?

Common focuses include low testosterone, erectile dysfunction, insulin resistance and prediabetes, high blood pressure, lipid abnormalities, sleep issues, weight gain, decreased muscle mass, and fatigue. We also support prevention and healthy aging.

Do I need labs before starting?

We can begin with a consultation, then order labs that best fit your history and goals. Typical panels may assess CBC, CMP, lipids including particle analysis, HbA1c, fasting insulin, thyroid panel, inflammatory markers, vitamin D, and sex hormone profiles, with additional testing as needed.

No. Testosterone replacement is considered for confirmed clinical hypogonadism with symptoms and low levels on guideline based testing. Risks, benefits, and alternatives are reviewed, and monitoring is required.

Can this approach improve erectile dysfunction?

Many men see improvement when vascular health, hormones, sleep, and stress are addressed together. We may combine lifestyle strategies with targeted treatments. Results vary, and we tailor to your needs.

Are peptides, ozone, or regenerative therapies right for me?

Some uses are investigational and are not FDA approved for all indications. We provide balanced information about potential benefits and risks and only consider these options when appropriate, with informed consent and close oversight.

How long until I notice results?

Some patients report better energy, sleep, or focus within weeks, while metabolic and body composition changes can take months. Timelines depend on your starting point, adherence, and the therapies used.

Do you accept patients outside South Portland?

Yes, we serve South Portland and nearby communities including Portland, Scarborough, Cape Elizabeth, Falmouth, Westbrook, and more. Call to confirm availability.
