What are bioidentical hormone pellets?

Bioidentical hormone pellets are small, rice-sized implants that contain bioidentical hormones. These hormones have an identical chemical structure to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. They are typically made from plant sources such as yams or soy and are custom-made for each individual based on their specific hormone levels.

The pellets are inserted under the skin, usually in the buttocks or hip region, and release a steady stream of hormones into the body over time. This delivery method allows for a consistent level of hormone supplementation, unlike other forms, such as pills or creams, which can result in hormonal fluctuations.

Bioidentical hormone pellets have gained popularity as a form of hormone replacement therapy due to their convenience and effectiveness. The dosage is tailored to fit each patient’s individual needs. They are often used to treat symptoms of suboptimal hormone levels, which slowly starts for most people in their 30s and progressively worsens as they age.

 

What symptoms will hormone pellets help with?

Hormone replacement therapy has been shown to address symptoms related to hormonal imbalances effectively, including:

• Poor energy levels

• Insomnia

• Low motivation

• Low stamina

• Inability to focus

• Cognitive decline

• Decreased Libido

• Erectile dysfunction

• Vaginal dryness

• Irritability

• Anxiety

• Depressed mood

 

What are the long-term benefits of hormone pellet therapy?

As you age, hormone levels naturally lower, and the risk of getting age-related conditions such as high cholesterol, diabetes, osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes, and neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease increases. Hormone pellet therapy has been proven to decrease the risk of these conditions as the decline in hormone levels is associated with these conditions.

 

How long do hormone pellets last?

The duration of hormone pellets can vary from person to person, but they typically last 3-4 months for women and 4-6 months for men. Some men last up to 12 months, and women last up to 6 months, which is not typical.
