Women who regularly experience fatigue, depression, anxiety, and low blood pressure should contact Weight Loss MD, as those symptoms might be the indication of a hormonal imbalance. Generally, a hormonal imbalance can occur as the result of poor dieting, a lack of exercise, and/or one’s stress levels. Hormonal imbalances may also reflect an individual’s genetic predisposition for certain conditions. If you feel hormones might relate to what you’re feeling, there is a solution. Weight Loss MD offers BioTE® Medical’s therapy options to treat hormonal imbalances in women at our clinic. Reach out to us today if you have questions regarding our hormone therapy options for women.
Weight Loss MD’s Hormone Therapy Process
The path to a better you through hormone pellet therapy is just a phone call away. If you contact our Certified BioTE® Providers, they’ll ask you a few questions before setting up an appointment at our office. Once you’ve arrived, we will take a blood test to determine whether to proceed with pellet therapy. If you are found to be a good candidate, our specialists will then customize hormone pellets that can address your specific hormonal imbalance needs. A pellet will then be inserted beneath the skin, dissolving over time while releasing consistent doses of hormones depending on activity levels, stress, and gender of the patient, the pellets should last three to six months.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How do the pellets work?
Pellets are placed in your glute, in the fatty tissue beneath the skin. Pellets are better than patches and creams, due to the fact that they are under your skin. Pellets being under your skin allow the bio-identical hormones to be distributed through your blood stream 24/7, as your body needs them. With pellets, patients do not experience a “roller coaster” effect, due to the fact that the pellets are constantly providing your blood stream with bio-identical hormones.
Where do the pellets go?
Because they are pure hormone without synthetic ingredients or filters, they completely dissolve over time into the bloodstream.
How long do the pellets last?
Pellets have been known to last between 3-6 months. The life span of your pellets depend on your activity level, stress level and gender. For most women, pellets tend to last up to 4 months.
I get horrible headaches – will they help me?
Yes! We have had great success, especially with women who have menstrual migraines, and new migraines that appear after age 35.
Do I need to take other medication(s)?
If you still have a uterus, you will need to be on natural progesterone as well.
Why do I need estrogen?
Estrogen is the most important hormone for women. It protects women against heart attack, stroke, osteoporosis, and Alzheimer’s. It also keeps women looking young and healthy.
Why do I need testosterone?
Testosterone is the third female hormone and is as essential as estrogen and progesterone. Testosterone is needed to keep our thought process quick and our libido healthy. It improves bone density, muscle mass, strength and prevents some types of depression. Plus it is the source of energy and solid sleep!
Will I grow unwanted hair from testosterone?
There is less chance of excess hair growth with natural testosterone than with synthetic hormones. Facial hair will grow with testosterone pellets but no more than when you were in your thirties.
I feel like I do need BioTE®. What is next?
