Specializing in Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy & Weight-loss treatments.Bioidentical Hormone Therapy (BHRT)
Bioidentical hormone therapy is a natural treatment process to help men and women that suffer from a hormone imbalance. The process utilizes manmade hormones that are derived from plant estrogens to create a replacement hormone that is chemically identical to the ones naturally produced by the human body. Other traditional hormone replacement therapies use synthetic hormones that are not as similar to those naturally occurring in your body. For this reason, for many patients who want a natural option for treatment of the imbalance of a particular hormone, bioidentical hormone therapy is an excellent choice.
HOW COMMON IS HORMONE IMBALANCE?
Hormone imbalance is extremely common, especially in patients 40 years of age and older, with low testosterone being one of the most common imbalances.

Pellets are generally made from the natural wild yam plant, and are about the size of a grain of rice. One of our medical professionals will insert the pellet under the skin near your buttocks region, where it will slowly and consistently release the blend of hormones into your body over the course of several months. This steady rate of release is one of the biggest benefits of choosing pellets over other methods of hormone therapy.
In comparison, hormonal creams are applied once a day, with hormones being absorbed through the skin. This is a less effective method for a few reasons. First, applying the exact dose for your body is difficult for the average patient, as daily application amounts can vary slightly. In addition, pellets are a “smart” method, meaning that they response to your natural activity, delivering more hormones when you exercise – creams, patches, and pills cannot do thi
