Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
The SottoPelle Method
In addition to your symptomatic profile, we order laboratory tests to determine if you are a candidate for hormone replacement therapy. We then individualize your treatment dose based on your age, weight, lab values and symptoms. We use the SottoPelle method of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) where small pellets (about the size of a grain of rice) are inserted beneath the skin. This is done through a tiny incision that requires only a dressing - no sutures! BHRT is repeated approximately once every three to four months for women.
Why Use Bio-Identical Hormones?
Remaining healthy into old age depends on many things including lifestyle and genetics. It also makes perfect sense to replenish what the body needs. That’s why we supplement vitamins and minerals. It’s also why we use hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to restore internal balance. Many physicians focus on simply relieving symptoms with pharmaceutical pills, patches, or injections. However, in order to return the body to balance, it needs recognizable hormone substances and a precision delivery method to transport them through the bloodstream around the clock. By far, the safest, most effective, and most convenient method is using properly administered BHRT pellet implants to restore the beneficial hormone levels your body needs. Hormone replacement pellet implants consist of low-dose estradiol and testosterone that release slowly for three to six months, 24/7. It is the only BHRT method that can release more hormones when the body needs it.
After decades of treating women (and men) with this method, we’ve witnessed firsthand the life-changing impact hormone pellet implant therapy has had on thousands of patients - whether it helped reverse serious osteoporosis, aided a Parkinson’s patient to make strides in mobility, or simply helped revive a marriage. Many say hormone replacement therapy has given them back what they thought they’d lost forever - their quality of life!
How Hormone Replacement Therapy Treats the Signs of Menopause
Menopause is the end of the female reproductive cycle and is commonly diagnosed when a woman has not had her period for 12 months. The average age for the onset of menopause is 51, but can also happen as early as your late 30’s. The precise method of determining if a woman is in menopause is to measure the amount of follicle-stimulating hormone levels in the blood. Leading up to menopause, the ovaries produce fewer and fewer hormones, which causes a variety of changes in a woman’s body.
Surgical removal of the ovaries and other medical conditions and treatments can also induce menopause. The fluctuations in the hormones estrogen, testosterone and progesterone can cause your periods to become irregular and sometimes heavy. Other symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, brain fog, weight gain, increased belly fat, and headaches can soon follow.
BHRT naturally restores the correct amount and balance of a woman’s hormones.
