When hormones fall out of balance, weight gain, low energy and stalled progress often follow. At Sota Wellness, we provide bioidentical hormone replacement therapy for women in Sarasota, FL, designed to restore hormonal balance and help your body respond more effectively to medical weight loss and long-term health care.
Care is doctor-led. Plans are personalized. Treatment decisions are based on how your body responds, not one-size-fits-all protocols.
If weight gain, fatigue or body changes no longer respond to diet and exercise, hormones may be part of the reason.
For many women, these challenges begin or accelerate during perimenopause, menopause or post-menopause.
As estrogen, progesterone and other hormones shift, metabolism slows, fat storage changes and weight loss becomes harder to achieve and maintain.
At Sota Wellness, hormone replacement therapy for women in Sarasota is often used to support medical weight loss by addressing hormonal imbalances that interfere with metabolism, energy and weight regulation.
Erin Britton brings years of experience helping women restore balance through hormone-informed, medically guided care. Her approach is educational, patient-centred and focused on long-term health.
She has worked closely with Dr. Marilyn Richardson, MD, FACOG, a nationally recognized leader in hormone therapy, whose mentorship supports the depth and safety of care at Sota Wellness.
Hormonal imbalance rarely shows up as just one symptom. Many women notice several changes happening at the same time.
You may be experiencing:
When symptoms overlap like this, hormones are often contributing behind the scenes.
Hormones play a central role in how your body burns calories, stores fat and regulates appetite.
As hormone levels shift:
This is why many women feel as though their bodies are working against them. Even consistent effort may no longer produce results. In these cases, weight loss often stalls unless hormonal balance is addressed.
Bioidentical hormone therapy is not a weight loss treatment on its own.
However, when hormones are out of balance, they can make medical weight loss far more difficult than it needs to be.
Restoring hormonal balance may help:
At Sota Wellness, hormone therapy is often coordinated with our doctor-led medical weight loss programs in Sarasota when appropriate. Not every patient needs both. When combined, care is delivered intentionally and monitored closely by the same medical team.
Care here begins with a detailed consultation focused on your symptoms, health history, lifestyle and goals. We take time to understand what is changing in your body and how it may be affecting weight, energy and well-being.
Hormone levels are evaluated and, when relevant, metabolic markers that influence weight and body composition are reviewed to guide treatment decisions.
Your BHRT plan is tailored to your life stage and symptoms. Treatment is introduced gradually and adjusted carefully to restore balance safely.
Hormone levels, symptoms and overall response are monitored over time. Adjustments are made as your body responds.
When hormone therapy is used alongside medical weight loss, care is coordinated by the same medical team to support sustainable, long-term results.
Early hormonal shifts that affect metabolism, energy and weight regulation.
Support for symptoms that often coincide with weight gain, insulin resistance and metabolic slowdown.
Long-term hormone optimisation to support overall health, strength and body composition.

Women choose Sota Wellness because care here looks deeper than symptoms alone.
Our approach is designed for women who want clarity, medical guidance and care that adapts as their bodies change.

Individual results vary. Weight-related outcomes may reflect coordinated hormone and medical weight loss care when appropriate.
