Treatment Options
Treatment is highly individualized and may include prescription thyroid medications such as:
Levothyroxine (synthetic T4)
Cytomel (synthetic T3)
Armour Thyroid or NP Thyroid (natural desiccated thyroid with T4 and T3)
Customized combinations to optimize conversion and function
Lifestyle & Functional Support
In addition to medication, we address lifestyle and dietary factors that influence thyroid health, including:
Nutrient deficiencies (selenium, iodine, zinc)
Blood sugar regulation
Stress management
Gut health
By combining medical optimization with functional lifestyle interventions, we help patients improve energy, metabolism, weight management, and overall hormonal balance.
What are you experiencing?
Select a symptom to see how we can help.
Can we keep our current care team while working with you?
Absolutely. Many patients work with us alongside their existing providers. Our integrative, root-cause approach complements traditional reproductive medicine, and we're happy to coordinate with your other providers.
What's your success rate?
Our patients achieve greater than 70% pregnancy success rates, and our outcomes continue to improve as we refine our protocols. Success rates vary based on individual factors including age, underlying conditions, and how long you've been trying — all of which we discuss honestly during your consultation.
I live outside of South Dakota — can I still be seen?
Yes. Dr. Redmond is licensed for telemedicine in South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Montana, Minnesota, and Wyoming, with licensure expanding to Florida and Arizona soon. You can also travel to our Sioux Falls clinic for in-person care. Fertility care often involves labs, which we coordinate with local labs near you.
Do you accept insurance?
We do not accept insurance, which allows us to spend 60–120 minutes per appointment getting to the root cause rather than working within the limits of an insurance-driven system. We accept HSA and FSA payments, and we provide claim forms for potential reimbursement. Initial consultation is $250, with lab testing typically ranging from $150–$800 depending on what's needed.
Can testosterone therapy affect my fertility?
This is an important question. Standard testosterone replacement can actually suppress sperm production, so fertility optimization in men requires a careful, specialized approach. Dr. Redmond's men's health training allows her to optimize hormones in ways that support — rather than compromise — your fertility goals. This is exactly why a thorough evaluation matters before starting any therapy.
