BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONE PELLET THERAPY FOR WOMEN
BioTe® bio-identical hormones pellet therapy is the only method of estrogen and testosterone therapy that gives sustained and consistent hormonal levels throughout the day for months without any “roller coaster” blood levels of testosterone, which can result in mood and energy fluctuations for the patient.
BioTE® Medical shows excellent results treating thousands of women with bio-identical estrogen and progesterone hormones therapy and having had only a few reported side effects, which were all minor and treatable. Hormone pellet replacement therapy is a safe and effective way to return your estrogen and testosterone levels to what they were when you were younger, or even to optimize than to a higher level. Actually, it is the only method of hormone therapy that gives sustained and provides consistent hormones levels throughout the day for four to six months without any “roller coaster” blood levels and mood and energy fluctuations.
Estrogen and Testosterone pellet delivery system allows your body to use the right amount of hormone as the blood flow surrounding the pellets picks up what is needed. The release of testosterone is proportionally related to your cardiac output for which any type of exercise will increase the release and optimize the positive effects of the testosterone hormone.
Wellness Plus only administers estrogen and testosterone in the form of pellets that contain a natural source of each one. These pellets have the size of a grain of rice or less and are placed underneath the skin in your butt. No stitches are needed. When testosterone and estrogen levels drop, symptoms may return and a new pellet needs to be inserted. Pellets do not carry the risk of transference. BioTe® Medical shows excellent results treating thousands of women with bio-identical hormone therapy and having had only a few reported side effects, which were all minor and treatable.
WELLNESS PLUS HEALTHY LIFESTYLE PROGRAM FOR WOMEN
Our program is designed for our female patients to quickly achieve peak physical and mental performance despite their demanding lifestyles.
Precise dosing is the key. Proper hormone levels are determined by the BioTE® comprehensive blood work analysis. A unique dosing is generated for each individual patient, so dosing is customized for what your body needs. Pellets deliver pure, bio-identical hormones directly into the bloodstream 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for up to 5 months. Pills, patches, creams and shots cannot provide a steady delivery of hormones 24/7. Pellets provide a constant supply of hormones that your body recognizes as its own, which significantly reduces the chance of adverse side effects.

The physician will carefully evaluate and discuss the results of your preliminary lab analysis, diagnostics testing, and medical history, and will custom design a hormone replacement treatment tailored to your specific needs.
