What if the fatigue, brain fog, and low drive you or a loved one are experiencing with Parkinson's isn't just Parkinson's? What if hormones, specifically testosterone, are playing a bigger role than most providers realize? I'm Colleen Kupka, owner of Rejuvenate Hormone and Weight Loss Center in Scottsdale, AZ. In this episode, I dive into a critical but often overlooked question: Can testosterone therapy improve the quality of life for men with Parkinson's? Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why most providers miss the hormone connection in Parkinson's care The overlap between low testosterone symptoms (fatigue, brain fog, depression, muscle weakness, low libido) and Parkinson's What research says: over 35% of men with Parkinson's also have low testosterone How testosterone reduces inflammation in the brain, supporting cognition, mood, and overall vitality Why "normal" labs don't always mean optimal health, and why treating the whole person matters At Rejuvenate in Scottsdale, I don't treat numbers; I treat people. For many men with Parkinson's, optimizing hormones has been the difference between feeling stuck and feeling alive again. If you or someone you love is living with Parkinson's, don't overlook hormones. They may not cure the disease, but they can change how you live with it. Ready to take the next step? Give me a call at 480-589-3999 today or schedule a complimentary consultation to explore how hormone therapy can support brain health, energy, and overall wellness.
Are you doing everything "right" — eating clean, working out, trying every skincare trick — yet still struggling with stubborn belly fat, unexplained fatigue, or adult acne that just won't clear? The real problem could be an overlooked protein: Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG). Hi, I'm Colleen Kupka, Nurse Practitioner and leading hormone specialist in Scottsdale, AZ, and founder of Rejuvenate Hormone and Weight Loss Center. Come along with me as I dive into SHBG — what I call your body's "hormone gatekeeper." Inside this episode, you'll learn: What SHBG really does and why it's so crucial for your sex hormones, energy, and mood How insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and even poor sleep can tank your SHBG levels — and what that means for your long-term health The subtle signs your SHBG may be too low, including skin tags, midsection weight gain that won't budge, unwanted facial hair, or thinning scalp hair The exact labs I run for my patients — because a basic thyroid panel just isn't enough My step-by-step plan to naturally support healthy SHBG levels through a nutrient-dense diet, effective stress management, aerobic & strength training, and advanced options like tirzepatide, which research shows can outperform Ozempic for weight loss and metabolic health If you've ever felt dismissed by "normal" labs or generic advice, you deserve answers, and I am here to help you find them. Call me at (480) 589-3999 or book your complimentary hormone consultation with me today. Let's make sure your SHBG — and your entire hormone system — is working for you, not against you. My goal is to ensure you leave my podcast feeling informed, empowered, and ready to take action — so you can finally stop guessing and start feeling like you again. Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with someone who needs real answers for stubborn weight gain, fatigue, or skin issues.

Hi, I'm Colleen Kupka, hormone specialist and founder of Rejuvenate Hormone and Weightloss Center in Scottsdale, Arizona. In this episode, I'm sharing a story I hear far too often: a woman in perimenopause, feeling overwhelmed, confused by her lab results, and convinced that estradiol is the fix. But when we're in this phase, our hormones—especially estradiol—fluctuate dramatically, sometimes even doubling from one day to the next. Relying on lab numbers alone can actually lead to bigger problems, not solutions. Dive in with me as I explain: Why estradiol can be risky in perimenopause The critical role progesterone plays in calming symptoms like anxiety, brain fog, and insomnia Why symptoms—not just labs—should guide your care The truth about bioidentical hormone therapy & why working with a real provider (not just AI) matters for long-term wellness Whether you're in Scottsdale or anywhere else, my goal is to help you feel seen, heard, and supported. Hormone therapy isn't one-size-fits-all—and you deserve personalized care based on what your body is really telling you. Ready for real answers from a real person? Schedule your consultation with me today or give me a call at 480-589-3999.
I see it all too often—women who come to me scared, confused, and misinformed about hormone therapy. In this episode, I'm sharing the story of a 65-year-old patient who was told by her provider that starting estradiol would increase her risk of stroke. Instead of being empowered, she walked away from potentially life-changing care because of outdated—and frankly, dangerous—information. Let me be clear: when used correctly, estradiol is not only safe, it's protective. And in many cases, it can dramatically improve a woman's quality of life. In this episode, I walk you through: ✔️ Why oral bioidentical estradiol is actually supportive of cardiovascular health ✔️ The truth behind those old studies (like the Women's Health Initiative) and why they've led so many people astray ✔️ Why I prescribe oral estradiol—and not transdermal—for consistent, measurable results ✔️ How timing matters: why starting hormone therapy within 10 years of menopause can offer incredible long-term benefits ✔️ What estradiol really does for brain function, inflammation, bone density, and more ✔️ How to protect yourself from the fear-based misinformation still being passed around—even by well-meaning providers As a concierge hormone specialist in Scottsdale, I've made it my mission to give women answers rooted in biology and research, not outdated medical school lectures or pharmaceutical marketing. If you've been told hormones are dangerous… if you're feeling dismissed or afraid to ask questions… this episode is for you. I want to empower you with science, clarity, and hope. Because you deserve to feel strong, sharp, and supported at every stage of life. Ready to explore what's right for your body? Book your personalized hormone consultation today or call me directly at 480-589-3999. Whether you're local to Scottsdale or prefer a telehealth visit, I'm here to meet you wherever you are.
Perimenopause is one of the most misunderstood—and under-discussed—phases in a woman's life. Many women come to me feeling confused, exhausted, and frustrated, unsure of what's happening to their bodies or where to turn for answers. A recent clinical study confirms what I see every day: most physicians aren't adequately preparing women for perimenopause or menopause, leaving them to navigate this major life shift alone. In this episode, I break down: What perimenopause actually is Common symptoms like brain fog, insomnia, mood swings, and low libido Why this phase can last up to 10 years—and how to support your body through it Which treatments I trust (and which I don't) based on years of patient care 💡 From lifestyle changes and strength training to the transformative benefits of bioidentical progesterone and testosterone therapy, I'll guide you through the options that truly work. I also share why I don't recommend estradiol during perimenopause—and what you should know before considering it. Most importantly, you'll hear what compassionate, personalized care can look like—no long waits, no generic protocols—just real support for your unique journey. Ready to feel like yourself again?

In this episode, let's talk aout the meaning/ difference of natural, bioidentical or synthetic hormones. Bioidentical hormones are identical in molecular structure to the hormones women make in their bodies. They're not found in this form in nature, but are made or synthesized from a plant chemical extracted from yams and soy. Bioidentical hormones are also considered synthetic as they are made in a lab. Natural hormones come from a natural source. We'll talk about real examples of each of these as well....
