What is Female Hormone Pellet Therapy?
Pellet implants are a unique way to treat hormone imbalances in the body. Customized to meet your individual needs, pellets are compounded hormones made from organic plant materials, which have the same molecular structure as those hormones found in the body.
In a simple, quick in-office procedure, your doctor inserts a prescribed number of rice-grain-sized bioidentical hormone pellets under the skin near the hip. These pellets will release a steady small amount of hormone(s) directly into your bloodstream for an average of several months.
Is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) right for you?
If you are considering hormone replacement therapy, you are not alone.
Symptoms of menopause can vary from woman to woman. Some women have mild symptoms that resolve in a few months while others have severe symptoms that persist indefinitely.
Even though menopause is a natural body process that all women experience at some point in their lifetime, this does not mean that we should not treat it in order to make the transition easier. Many women find that hormone replacement therapy does just that.
Do you think you might be a candidate for hormone replacement therapy for women? Take our self-assessment to find out.
