What is Pellet Therapy?
Pellets are small, custom compounded therapies for symptoms that stem from hormonal imbalances. This therapy keeps hormone levels consistent throughout the day and avoids rollercoaster-like effects from orally topically administered hormones. The pellets BioTE use contain bio-identical hormones, derived from natural sources. The pellets contain hormones identical to the ones found in the human body. Studies have shown bio-identical hormones have fewer side effects than synthetic hormones.
What kind of Estrogen is in Bio-Identical Pellets?
BioTE Medical uses bio-identical estradiol in the pellets, meaning that the chemical structure is the same as the hormones naturally produced in your body.
How long does Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy take to work?
Each patient’s symptoms and paths to optimization are unique. Most patients report some symptom resolution in as little as two to four weeks, but full optimization may take up to 6 months. Your journey will be specialized to fit your specific needs. Just as it doesn’t take you 1-2 weeks to get out of balance, it doesn't resolve that quickly either.
