Explore the science behind hormone health and why bioidentical pellet therapy might be the solution.
Hormones are the chemical messengers in our body that run the show. They orchestrate nearly every physiological process in the body -- from metabolism and immune function to cognitive performance, cardiovascular health, and sexual wellness. Produced by glands in our endocrine system, hormones must be released in precise amounts and rhythms to maintain balance and wellbeing.

But over time -- particularly with aging, chronic stress, or environmental exposure -- hormone production can decline or become dysregulated. Even small shifts can have wide-reaching effects, disrupting sleep, mood, memory, body composition, and overall vitality.
If you're experiencing fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, or decreased libido, there's a strong chance hormonal imbalance is at play. And it's more common than you think -- especially during perimenopause, menopause, and andropause.
At our clinic, we offer Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) using the Biote® Method — a pellet-based delivery system designed to restore optimal hormone levels with consistency and precision.
What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
BHRT restores key hormones — like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone —
that naturally decline over time. Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones are
molecularly identical to those your body produces, which often leads to better outcomes and
fewer side effects.
We use Biote® Pellets, which are:
Derived from plant-based sources
Compounded to match your individualized dosing needs
Inserted just beneath the skin, where they slowly release hormone over 3-5
months
Why Biote® Pellet Therapy?
Pellet therapy offers several advantages over creams, pills, patches, or injections:
Consistent delivery — no daily fluctuations or hormone spikes
Convenient — only 3-4 insertions per year
Customized dosing based on comprehensive lab testing
Backed by research — Biote has been used in over 2.5 million insertions and counting
This steady delivery system mimics the body’s natural hormone rhythms more closely than any other
delivery methods.

How Do You Know If You Need HRT?
Hormone imbalances often present with a cluster of symptoms that are easy to dismiss
as “just getting older.” But they’re not inevitable — and they’re not something you have to live
with. Common symptoms include:
Fatigue or lack of energy
Difficulty sleeping
Reduced mental focus, memory, or brain fog
Mood swings, feelings of anxiety or depression
Hot flashes or night sweats
Stubborn weight gain
Inability to lose weight, despite diet or activity
Deceased muscle strength
Muscle and joint pain
Reduced sexual desire
Our Approach to Hormone Therapy
We don’t believe in guessing or treating symptoms in isolation. Our approach is rooted
in lab testing, clinical experience, and whole-body insight. Here’s what to expect:
Comprehensive lab panel to evaluate hormone levels, thyroid, insulin, and more
Consultation to review your results and determine if you are a candidate for BHRT
Customized dosing through the Biote method
Pellet insertion in a simple in-office procedure (takes about 10 minutes)
Ongoing monitoring and follow-up to fine-tune your plan as needed
We also consider lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and metabolic health to support long-term success.
Is Biote® Pellet Therapy Safe?
Yes. When prescribed and managed correctly by trained providers, bioidentical pellet
therapy is both safe and effective. Biote providers are specially certified, and the pellets are
compounded in FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities that meet strict safety and sterility
standards.
This therapy is not recommended for individuals with certain medical conditions (such as
active breast or prostate cancer), which is why thorough screening and lab testing are
essential.
What Results Can You Expect?
Many patients report noticeable improvements within weeks of treatment, including:
Better energy and stamina
Improved mood and clarity
Better sleep quality
Increased lean muscle and decreased fat mass
Restored libido and sexual function
Fewer hot flashes and night sweats
A general sense of “feeling like yourself again”
