Hormone Pellet Therapy for Women

Hormone Pellet Therapy for Women

Hormone pellet therapy is a highly personalized form of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) that supports women through symptoms of hormone imbalance, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. It offers steady, sustained hormone delivery, targeting issues from hot flashes to mood swings.

Signs of Hormone Imbalance

Women may experience various symptoms signaling a hormone imbalance. These can include:

  • Menopause Symptoms: Hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings are classic signs.
  • Sexual Dysfunction: Vaginal dryness and discomfort during intercourse.
  • Physical Changes: Unexplained weight gain, joint pain, or muscle weakness.
  • Emotional Distress: Increased anxiety or irritability.

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, reach out to us here at Radiant Health & Hormone Therapy in Sioux Falls for a consultation.

How Hormone Pellet Therapy Works

Hormone pellet therapy involves the subcutaneous insertion of a small pellet that contains bioidentical hormones like estrogen and/or progesterone. Here’s how the process works:

  1. Consultation: Collaboration with a health provider to assess symptoms and health history.
  2. Customization: Tailoring the hormone dosage based on individual needs and lab results.
  3. Procedure: Implanted pellets release hormones at a consistent rate, which our bodies recognize due to their bioidentical nature.
  4. Maintenance: Pellets typically last 3-5 months, after which the procedure can be repeated as necessary.

For women, this therapy is particularly beneficial, addressing menopause-related osteoporosis risk and providing relief from severe menopausal symptoms. It’s one of the safest and most effective methods offered by medical professionals focused on women’s health.
