restore your body's testosterone levels with pellet therapy

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can be delivered in many forms. There are creams, gels, and injections, but popular culture and our busy lifestyles demand another option, one that frees men and women from the hassles of daily dosing, optimizes hormone levels, and minimizes side effects.

This treatment solution is known as pellet therapy and though it may seem like a novel concept, it’s actually been around as long as bioidentical hormone therapy itself. Pellet therapy dates back to the 1930s—but only rose to popularity in recent years as on-the-go lifestyles have increased in demand.

Discover why pellet therapy is a preferred treatment option for many men and women seeking bioidentical hormone therapy.

what is hormone pellet therapy?

Hormone pellets are derived from plants, just like other forms of BHRT, meaning they are naturally based and structurally identical to the hormones produced by the human body. Pellets are currently available for two types of hormone therapy—testosterone and estradiol. Each pellet is about the size of a grain of rice and is inserted into an incision made to the upper hip area during a simple, in-office procedure. Following insertion, the body slowly begins to metabolize the pellet, releasing a steady, natural dose of hormones—much like the body does under normal function—over the course of three to six months. The duration depends on how quickly the body metabolizes the pellet.

Testosterone pellet therapy has helped clients with the symptoms of low testosterone, such as fatigue, muscle weakness, reduced sex drive, night sweats, or weight gain, just to name a few. Bioidentical testosterone pellets may be able to restore hormonal balance for patients.

At the biostation, our medical team addresses your needs and customizes a dosage plan. The testosterone pellets release a consistent dose of testosterone and TRT is shown to begin improving patients’ hormone imbalance in just a few weeks. Full hormone optimization can take several months. Testosterone pellet therapy may help your body return to its optimal testosterone levels.

Understanding Hormone Imbalance

Hormonal imbalances occur when you have too much or too little of a particular hormone. A hormonal imbalance can lead to a variety of disruptive symptoms that hinder your productivity, slow your metabolism, and get in the way of your simple enjoyment of life.

As a hormonal imbalance develops, you may find your metabolism changing. Where you were once a trim, energetic individual, you may suddenly find that extra pounds are piling on, and you're simply too tired to hit the gym and fight them off. As if that weren't upsetting enough, your unbalanced hormones may also cause you to feel a heightened sense of anxiety about your weight or leave you so depressed about the situation that you can't crawl out of bed.

This type of story is all too common among people struggling with hormone imbalances. Other symptoms can include hair loss, acne, and a reduction in or loss of sex drive.

The Science Behind Hormone Pellet Therapy

As people age, their hormone levels gradually decline. Hormone pellet therapy replaces declining hormones with bioidentical hormones from plant sources. These bioidentical hormones replicate the molecular structure of real hormones, unlike synthetic hormones, which are not bioidentical. The body can use bioidentical hormones more effectively than their synthetic counterparts. Subcutaneous pellets remain in the body at all times as they release these hormones, providing a continuous stream of hormones that mimics the body's natural production of these chemicals.

Bioidentical hormone therapy is commonly used to treat the symptoms of menopause. In one study, 122 of 189 participants reported an improvement in all their menopausal symptoms when using bioidentical hormones. Another study that used transdermal compound bioidentical hormones noted improvements in cardiovascular biomarkers, climacteric symptoms, and quality of life.

The biostation's Approach to Hormone Pellet Therapy

At the biostation, we personalize every treatment plan. Our team uses diagnostic blood testing to conduct a complete assessment of the patient's health. We can also incorporate stress and reproductive hormone testing in your treatment plan for a more comprehensive picture. Our team of board-certified practitioners has decades of combined experience improving patients' quality of life.

What To Expect During Treatment

Hormone pellet therapy takes just one quick and easy visit to the office every few months to receive the bioidentical hormone pellets that deliver a continuous stream of hormones in your body. The doctor uses local anesthesia to numb the area, then makes a small incision near the hip to insert the pellets. The wound is typically taped closed. Patients should avoid bathing or swimming for three to five days following the procedure as the wound heals.

Patients may experience minor bruising or bleeding after the insertion process. Pain is usually minimal. Women should avoid vigorous activity for 48 hours after the procedure, while men should avoid it for five to seven days.

You might start to notice the effects of hormone pellet therapy in as little as 24 to 48 hours. In some cases, it can take up to a week to see a significant change. The effects of hormone pellets usually last for at least three months in women and at least five months in men.

Is Hormone Pellet Therapy Right for You?

Hormone pellet therapy can help any patient who is suffering from the symptoms of low testosterone or estrogen levels.
