Real Labs, Real Results: Why Performance Medical Clinic Delivers Superior Hormone Therapy Results
At Performance Medical Clinic in Edwardsville, IL, we believe that exceptional outcomes require exceptional data. When it comes to hormone therapy, most clinics settle for surface-level lab work. We don’t. We dig deeper, testing over 75+ biomarkers to get a complete picture of your health - because real results start with real labs.
The Problem with One-Size-Fits-All Hormone Clinics:
Too many hormone therapy clinics operate on autopilot: minimal lab panels, generic protocols, and cookie-cutter care. If your provider isn’t evaluating your complete metabolic, cardiovascular, thyroid, and inflammatory profiles, they’re not truly optimizing your health. That’s not just a gap in care. That’s a red flag. 🚩
What Makes Performance Medical Clinic Different? We go beyond "normal" lab ranges and ask the right questions:
Is your testosterone actually bioavailable?
Are your estrogen and progesterone in proper ratio?
Are inflammatory markers (like CRP and homocysteine) sabotaging your progress?
Is your thyroid function optimal—not just "within range"?
We test:
Hormones (total and free testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, DHEA, cortisol, SHBG, etc.)
Thyroid markers (TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3, antibodies)
Metabolic markers (glucose, insulin, HbA1c, lipids)
Nutrient levels (B12, Vitamin D, magnesium, iron)
Inflammatory markers (hsCRP, homocysteine)
Liver & kidney function, CBC, and more
Why It Matters - Real lab data allows us to:
Identify underlying imbalances
Prevent side effects
Fine-tune hormone doses for precision results
Monitor progress and adjust in real time
This means better energy, sleep, libido, mood, and body composition - because we’re treating the root causes, not just masking symptoms.
Physician-Led. Data-Driven. Results-Oriented. Unlike many clinics, Performance Medical is physician-led. That means every protocol is backed by clinical expertise and rooted in evidence-based medicine. Our commitment to comprehensive testing ensures your hormone therapy is not just effective, but safe and optimized for longevity.
Expect More from Your Hormone Clinic If your current provider isn’t looking at the whole picture, it might be time to upgrade your care. At Performance Medical Clinic, we don’t guess. We test. And we deliver real results that transform lives.
