Feel Like Yourself Again With Pellet Hormone Therapy

If you have struggled with chronic stress, low sex drive, unexpected weight gain, hair loss, poor sleep, or low energy , you can feel like your best self again with our hormone pellet therapy!

The primary goal of hormone therapy is to address the root cause of your symptoms—hormone imbalance—and reach a state of hormone optimization.

Patients who seek hormone therapy are often seeking relief from uncomfortable symptoms of hormone imbalance including hot flashes, night sweats, hair loss, insomnia, weight gain, brain fog, low energy, moodiness, irritability, anxiety, fatigue, and more. With pellet therapy, patients experience relief of these symptoms as well as additional benefits, such as improved libido, mental focus, and reduced risk of disease.

What To Expect From Hormone Pellet Therapy

Treatment plans begin with laboratory testing. At your first consultation, we will review your lab results, medical history, symptoms, and discuss your current lifestyle and personal experiences since symptoms began. This information will allow us to develop a treatment plan for you that may include BHRT as well as other healthy lifestyle changes and therapies to achieve optimal health and wellness.

Hormone replacement therapy is achieved by embedding small hormone pellets under the skin. The procedure involves a minor incision around the upper hip area where the pellet will be inserted. The incision is then covered with a special medical tape. The body absorbs the hormones over time, and benefits can be felt from days to a few weeks after the treatment. The hormone pellets typically last 3 to 5 months.

Hormone Replacement Therapy FAQ

Bioidentical hormone therapy pellets are custom-compounded estradiol or testosterone pressed into small, solid cylinders similar to a large grain of rice. Pellet production is highly regulated by the FDA.

Pellets deliver consistent levels of hormone for 3 to 5 months in women and 4 to 6 months in men. Pellets mimic the slow, steady release of hormones naturally produced by the body, therefore reducing side effects commonly observed with other delivery methods and improving overall outcomes, including relieving symptoms of hormone imbalance.

Unlike patches, pills, creams, or injections, pellets are highly convenient. Once inserted, the pellets begin to dissolve delivering a steady state of hormone to your body. With pills or creams, there is always the forgetting or applying too much or too little of the product. Injections often give higher doses at the beginning of each cycle and taper off sharply before the next injection. Patches are often unsightly or fall off before the cycle is complete. These features lead to drastic changes in your hormone levels that can impede relief or cause other side effects. With pellets, most patients experience hormone optimization within two insertions and enjoy complete symptom relief as well as other benefits.

The steady rate of delivery is a key feature in supporting reduced risk of some diseases, while also optimizing overall health. When administered correctly, pellet therapy does not contribute to an increased risk of blood clots that are commonly experienced with other forms of hormone replacement therapy.

Pellet therapy is a longstanding, effective form of hormone therapy, dating back to the early 1930s. Patients who have experienced negative side effects or poor outcomes with other forms of hormone therapy are often successful with pellet therapy.

To determine this, will complete a thorough examine, assess your lab work, and review your medical history before recommending treatment. There are currently no known health conditions that would prohibit BHRT, however for estrogen-positive breast cancer survivors or prostate cancer survivors, a modified treatment plan may be necessary.

The insertion of pellets is a short, simple procedure that is often completed in a short 30-minute office visit. Pellets are usually inserted in the lower abdominal wall or the upper buttocks area. Local anesthesia is applied to the insertion site, where a small incision is made and the pellets are placed. The incision is closed up with a special medical tape.

The procedure requires a minor incision in the upper hip area. A numbing agent comprised of lidocaine and epinephrine with sodium bicarbonate is used to numb the area prior to the procedure. The procedure takes only a few minutes, and most patients report feeling little to no pain during the procedure.

Patients may begin to notice symptom relief with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy within days to a few weeks after insertion. Most women experience improvement of at least one symptom within 72 hours of their first insertion, while men often see improvement of one or more symptoms within two weeks. The greatest improvements are most often observed in men and women after their second pellet insertion.

Optimal results are best achieved when paired with a healthy lifestyle including a balanced diet and routine exercise.

Insertion schedules vary by individual. Various factors impact the rate at which the pellets dissolve. For most women, pellets will last 3 to 5 months, requiring approximately three to four visits per year. For most men, pellets will last 5 to 7 months, requiring two to three visits per year.
