Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
HTCA Certified practices offer Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) to help balance hormones to healthy, more optimal levels. Studies have shown that up to 80 percent of women, and 39 percent of men, experience unbalanced hormones at some point in their lives. BHRT is designed to help restore balance and improve overall health.
What is
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement (BHRT) Therapy?
Bioidentical hormone therapy is a safe, effective way to restore balance and improve overall health. It is tailored to each individual and involves the use of hormones that are identical to those naturally produced by the body. This can help reduce the side effects of declining hormone levels, such as night sweats, weight gain, brain fog, moodiness, and more.
​
Our preferred delivery system is using natural, rice-sized pellets that are placed under the skin to dynamically deliver hormones as the body needs them, at the correct levels. Because of this, the "roller coaster effect" you may experience with creams or shots is eliminated.
How Bioidentical Pellets
Work with the Body
Pellet therapy is an effective and convenient way to deliver hormones directly into the bloodstream. With pellet therapy, hormones are delivered in small, biodegradable pellets and inserted subcutaneously into the tissue.
The pellets deliver bio-identical hormones directly into the bloodstream throughout each day for up to 6 months in men and 4 months in women, a benefit that pills, patches, creams, and shots cannot provide. Pellet therapy is a safe and effective way to address hormone deficiencies and help restore hormonal balance.
​
Bioidentical hormones are hormones that your body recognizes as being very similar to its own, which significantly reduces the chance of adverse side effects. This allows your body to integrate these hormones more naturally, therefore making you feel more like yourself more quickly.
