Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (Bhrt)
Feeling tired, sluggish, having “brain fog”, low libido, energy level not what it used to be? BHRT is probably for you! As we age our hormone levels slowly start to decrease and with it these symptoms increase. Whether male or female, schedule a consultation with our board certified nurse practitioner to help get you back on track with your life!
Getting older does NOT have to equate to slowing down. There is still so much life to live!
What Exactly Does "Bioidentical" Mean?
Bioidentical hormone replacement is a natural alternative to synthetic hormone replacement therapies. Bioidentical hormone replacement utilizes bioidentical hormones derived from natural, plant-based substances.
Unlike synthetic hormones, the molecular structure of the bioidentical hormones, testosterone and/or estrogen, is human identical. Since they are derived from nature, plant-based hormones metabolize in the body, just as nature intended.
Health practitioners have been performing bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) since the 1930s. Studies have revealed that natural hormones may be a safer, more effective alternative to synthetic hormone modalities that have been popular for decades.
What Are Pellets?
Pellets are a natural alternative to synthetic hormone replacement therapies. Pellets are a subcutaneous bioidentical hormone replacement therapy that utilizes bioidentical hormones derived from natural, plant-based substances. They are placed just under your skin in the fatty area of your buttocks for women or in the “love handles” for men.
The Benefits of Pellets include:
- Ease of delivery - hormone pellets are absorbed through cardiac output after placed just under the skin mimicking your bodies natural delivery system.
- Consistency – consistent hormone levels are key to achieving optimal results and you avoid the roller coaster some experience from Shots and Creams.
- Convenience – you only need to have hormone pellets inserted 3-4 times per year versus having to inject or apply daily.
- Low side effect profile – because hormone pellets are in a molecular form that is Human Identical, your body knows exactly what to do with them.
