Hormones are chemical messengers that regulate countless processes in the body, but as we age, hormone production can decline or fluctuate, leading to uncomfortable and even debilitating symptoms. Biote pellet therapy provides a natural and effective way to restore optimal hormone levels, helping men and women regain their vitality and quality of life.
This therapy uses bioidentical hormones, which are compounds derived from natural sources, such as plants, that are chemically identical to the hormones naturally produced by the human body. By matching the body’s own hormones at a molecular level, bioidentical hormone therapy often results in fewer side effects and more seamless integration into your system compared to synthetic alternatives.
Biote pellet therapy begins with a comprehensive consultation and diagnostic process. Dr. Wong will evaluate your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle in-depth, and he may perform advanced blood testing to determine your current hormone levels. This approach allows for the creation of a highly individualized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Once the treatment plan is established, the process involves the placement of tiny, rice-grain-sized hormone pellets beneath the skin (often in the hip area). This simple, minimally invasive procedure is quick and generally well-tolerated, requiring only local anesthesia and a small incision that is easily closed with sterile tape or a dissolvable stitch.
After being inserted, the pellets dissolve slowly and steadily, releasing a consistent dose of hormones directly into the bloodstream. Unlike other delivery methods, this approach eliminates the need to remember daily dosages and minimizes the fluctuations in hormone levels that can contribute to inconsistent symptom relief.
The pellets typically last for several months, and follow-up appointments will help assess your progress and determine when the next round of pellets may be needed.
Biote bioidentical hormone pellet therapy addresses a wide range of symptoms caused by hormonal imbalances, offering improvements in both physical and emotional well-being. Among its many potential benefits are the following:
Biote pellet therapy is more than just a treatment; it’s a pathway to regaining control over your body and emotions. Whether you’re experiencing mild symptoms or struggling with significant disruptions to your daily life, this therapy offers a safe, effective, and convenient solution to realigning your hormones and revitalizing your well-being.
Hormone optimization is the process of balancing and adjusting hormone levels within the body to align with its natural rhythms and needs. Hormones play a critical role in regulating numerous bodily functions, including energy levels, mood, metabolism, and sleep quality. When these levels become imbalanced due to factors like aging, stress, or medical conditions, it can lead to a range of uncomfortable symptoms. Hormone optimization therapies, such as Biote pellet therapy, work to restore these levels, helping your body function more efficiently and improving your overall quality of life.
Many individuals begin to notice improvements within a few weeks of starting hormone optimization therapy, though the exact timeline can vary based on personal factors such as age, lifestyle, and the severity of the initial hormone imbalance. Full benefits often become more apparent after a few months as the body gradually adjusts to its new hormone levels. It’s important to approach the process with patience and recognize that consistent communication with your healthcare provider is key to achieving the best results.
This can vary based on individual circumstances, but most patients receive new pellets every three to six months. Dr. Wong will determine the appropriate interval for you based on your response to treatment, ongoing symptom management, and any other relevant factors.
Getting started on your hormone optimization journey is simple and stress-free. We understand the importance of convenience, which is why we offer easy online scheduling to fit into your busy lifestyle. With just a few clicks, you can book an appointment at a time that works best for you.
