Hormones play a key role in regulating continuous activity in our body and brain, essential to maintaining health and energy. As men and women grow older, we experience a decline in hormone production. A decrease in one or more hormones can result in a hormonal imbalance and can be the cause of many symptoms that we experience as we age, such as a slowing metabolism, a loss of vital energy, reduced bone strength, emotional and physical distress, a lack of sexual libido, and a decreased sense of overall well-being. If you are suffering any of these symptoms, and are interested in anti-aging medicine and maximum longevity then Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) could be right for you.
BHRT, also known as bioidentical hormone therapy or natural hormone therapy, is the use of hormones that are identical to the ones routinely produced by the human body. Effective for men and women, BHRT can be delivered in several forms such as creams, gels, tablets, and even pellets. Treatment predominantly focuses on the role of the major hormones such as estrogen, testosterone, thyroid hormone, cortisol, melatonin, progesterone, and DHEA.
Balancing hormone imbalance in patients with hormone dysfunction often has profound effects on longevity, quality of life and wellbeing.
Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Therapy
Bioidentical Hormone Pellet Therapy is an advanced form of hormone replacement that provides consistent, long-acting delivery of hormones using small, subcutaneous implants. These pellets contain bioidentical hormones—most commonly testosterone and/or estrogen—that are structurally identical to those produced by the human body.
Unlike creams, gels, or oral medications that require daily dosing and can result in fluctuating levels, pellet therapy is designed to provide a steady, physiologic release of hormone over time, helping maintain more stable blood levels and symptom control.
How Pellet Therapy Works During a simple in-office procedure, a small pellet (about the size of a grain of rice) is inserted just beneath the skin, typically in the upper gluteal area. Once placed, the pellet gradually dissolves and releases hormone directly into the bloodstream over several months.
Who May Benefit Pellet therapy may be appropriate for men and women experiencing symptoms related to hormone deficiency or imbalance, including: Low energy, reduced libido, mood changes, brain fog, and poor sleep.
Treatment Duration and Maintenance
- Pellets typically last 3–4 months in women and 4–6 months in men.
- Follow-up is individualized with periodic reassessment.
Pricing (All-inclusive of lab orders/consults during treatment duration):
- $850 men
- $700 women
