Hormone Replacement Therapy
What is Hormone Replacement Therapy?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is ideal for patients desiring the benefits of a natural hormone without the drawbacks of a synthetic. The goal of hormone pellet replacement therapy in women and men is to restore natural hormone balance.
-
We typically perform treatments every 3-4 months for women and every 5-6 months for men.
-
Blood work is required before the initial insertion. A recheck of the hormone levels is done 4-6 weeks after the first pellet insertion only. Following this, we do a full panel of blood work about once a year.
-
We do not accept health insurance, but you could use your HSA or FSA card to cover the cost if possible.
-
Common symptoms of a hormone imbalance that would benefit from pellet therapy include mood swings, fatigue, weight fluctuation, sleeping troubles, and decreased libido. These usually appear in middle age but can appear earlier or later. To be sure you’re a good candidate, we require a consultation appointment with one of our practitioners.
