Balanced hormones are necessary for good health and well-being as we age.
Hormone pellets are the newest and best way to deliver hormones in both men and women.
Tiny implants, the size of a grain of rice, are placed under the skin. These consistently release small, physiologic doses of bioidentical hormones for up to 6 months.
The pellets are made of either estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone and are derived from natural plant sources.
If you suffer from a hormonal imbalance and need help managing your symptoms, hormone pellet therapy is a great option.

It is the fluctuation in hormones that causes many of the unwanted side effects and symptoms that patients experience.
After pellets are inserted, patients notice that they have more energy, sleep better, and feel happier.
Muscle mass and bone density increase while fatty tissue decreases.
They also see an improvement in skin tone and hair texture.
Concentration and memory all improve as does overall physical and sexual health.
Current medical research shows that men also experience an equivalent of menopause called “andropause”.
Andropause is the term that describes the age-related hormonal changes men experience as they get older, typically in their 40s and beyond. During andropause, there is a gradual decline in the male sex hormone “testosterone”.
Until now the hormonal needs of men had few options. Now with pellet therapy, this has changed.
Pellet therapy is the only method of testosterone replacement that gives sustained and consistent levels of testosterone throughout the day for up to 6 months.
The insertion of pellets is a simple, relatively painless procedure done in the office with local freezing at the site of insertion.
It is amazing something so small can make such a big difference!
