Why Bioidentical Pellet Therapy?

Because it’s easy! As a hormone replacement therapy patient, you receive two to four bioidentical hormone pellet insertions per year. This way you don’t have to think about it, and the hormone is available when your body needs it. It’s a simple, one-and-done process, and there’s no need to worry about remembering to take a pill every day. Feel better no matter your age. Our bioidentical hormones will help you avoid the adverse side effects of synthetic hormones.

What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can come in oral, topical and pellet forms. BHRT using pellets has many advantages over other hormone modalities – most notably, the consistent administration offered by the AWHS to hormone replacement therapy. This prevents the rollercoaster like effects patients often experience with other forms of BHRT.

How Long Does a Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Pellet Take to Work?

Each hormone replacement therapy patient’s symptoms are unique, so is each patient’s path to hormone optimization. Most hormone therapy patients report some symptom resolution in as little as four weeks, but full optimization may take up to six months. Your bioidentical hormone therapy journey will be customized to fit your specific needs. It takes more than a few weeks for your hormones to get out of balance, so you can appreciate the fact that it may take a little time to get your hormones back to an optimal level.
