Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses natural hormones to treat symptoms like weight gain, low libido, mood swings, insomnia, and irritability. If you experience these issues, BHRT can help restore balance and improve your overall well-being.
Restore Your Body’s
Optimal Hormone Balance
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are identical in structure to those your body naturally produces. At our clinic, we offer pellets made from estradiol or testosterone. These pellets, inserted under the skin, release consistent hormone levels for 3-6 months, effectively treating symptoms such as weight gain, low libido, mood swings, insomnia, and irritability. By maintaining steady hormone levels, BHRT avoids the fluctuations seen with other methods, providing superior relief from menopausal symptoms, better sleep, improved libido, and enhanced overall well-being.

Bioidentical Hormones Vs. Synthetic Hormones
Bioidentical hormones are identical in structure to the hormones your body naturally produces, offering a more natural and tailored approach to hormone replacement therapy. In contrast, synthetic hormones often have slight structural differences, which can lead to increased side effects and health risks, such as blood clots. Bioidentical hormones provide consistent, balanced hormone levels, reducing fluctuations and improving overall well-being. Many patients find bioidentical hormone therapy to be more effective and safer, offering superior relief from symptoms and promoting a healthier, more balanced life.
How Do Bioidentical Hormone Pellets Work?
Bioidentical hormone pellets work by releasing hormones identical to those your body naturally produces. These pellets, made from estradiol or testosterone, are inserted under the skin and dissolve slowly over 3-6 months. They deliver a consistent hormone level, which is absorbed directly into the bloodstream. This steady release mimics the body’s natural hormone secretion, avoiding the fluctuations seen with other delivery methods. The hormones bind to specific receptors in your cells to regulate metabolism, mood, and sexual health.

Your Bioidentical Hormone
Replacement Therapy Session
During your bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) session, we begin with a comprehensive consultation to understand your specific symptoms and health goals. You will discuss your medical history, current symptoms, and any previous treatments with our healthcare providers. We then conduct a thorough evaluation, including hormone level testing, to determine the best course of action. This ensures that we curate a treatment plan tailored to your needs to restore balance and improve your overall well-being.
Once your treatment plan is established, we will proceed with the pellet insertion. The procedure is simple and relatively painless and performed under local anesthesia. We insert the pellets, which are about the size of a grain of rice, typically in the hip area for women and the flank for men. The incision is small and closed with steri-strips. You can expect minimal downtime, with most patients resuming normal activities shortly after the procedure.

Therapy Recovery & Aftercare
After your bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, you can expect a swift recovery with minimal downtime. You may experience minor side effects such as bruising, swelling, or skin discoloration at the insertion site. To ensure optimal healing, avoid swimming, hot tubs, and vigorous physical activity for 48-72 hours. Keep the incision clean and dry, and follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by our team. Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your progress and adjust treatment as needed.
