Peptide Therapy
Your body naturally produces tiny protein fragments called peptides that act as messengers between cells. As we age – or after injury, illness, or chronic stress – our natural peptide production can decline.
SUPPORT YOUR BODY’S NATURAL HEALING
Peptide therapy uses carefully selected peptides to help support your body’s own healing and repair processes. Depending on your health goals, peptide therapy may help promote tissue repair, improve metabolic health, support healthy aging, enhance recovery, and optimize overall wellness.
At Flourish Medical + Wellness, peptide therapy is always personalized. During your consultation, we’ll determine whether peptide therapy is appropriate for you and recommend the option that best supports your goals.

PEPTIDE THERAPY FAQs
1. What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body, helping regulate functions such as tissue repair, metabolism, immune function, and hormone signaling.
2. Are peptides the same as hormones?
No. While some peptides influence hormone release or activity, peptides and hormones are different types of biological messengers with distinct functions in the body.
3. How are peptides administered?
Most peptides are administered as a small subcutaneous (under-the-skin) injection, though some are available in oral, nasal, or topical forms depending on the specific peptide and its intended use.
4. How long until I notice results?
The timeline varies depending on the peptide, your health goals, and your body’s response. Some individuals notice changes within a few weeks, while others may require several months of consistent therapy.
5. How long do I stay on peptide therapy?
Treatment duration depends on the specific peptide and your individual goals. Some therapies are used for a defined treatment cycle, while others may be continued longer under the guidance of your provider.
6. Are peptides FDA approved?
Some peptide medications are FDA approved for specific medical conditions, while many peptides used in functional and regenerative medicine are not FDA approved for these uses. Your provider will discuss the available evidence, potential benefits, risks, and whether peptide therapy is appropriate for you.
7. Will peptide therapy work with my current treatment plan?
In many cases, peptides can be incorporated into an existing treatment plan, but every patient is different. Your provider will review your medications, supplements, medical history, and health goals to determine whether peptide therapy is a safe and appropriate option.

Is Peptide Therapy Safe?
Like any medical therapy, peptide treatment should only be used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider.
Your provider will review your medical history, medications, and any potential contraindications before beginning treatment. Some peptides are not appropriate during pregnancy or breastfeeding or for individuals with certain medical conditions.
Throughout your treatment, we’ll monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed to help maximize benefits while minimizing side effects.
