Bioidentical pellet implants are used to restore hormonal balance in both men and women. Did you know that this method has been used for more that 70 years? Positive scientific research showing the benefits of this therapy has been published in international journals for decades.
Bioidentical pellet therapy originated in Europe in the 1930s. Dr. Robert B. Greenblatt, a highly respected pioneer of Endocrinology, introduced this new method to the United States in 1939. Today, pellet implants are used by many practitioners for hormonal imbalances. One of the best things about bioidentical pellets, is they are natural, safe, and effective! This method remains the only form of hormone replacement delivery that closely mirrors what the human body does. Here are a few benefits of Bioidentical pellet implants:
-
Safe and Simple Insertion
Pellets are inserted safely and painlessly under the skin. Once the pellet is inserted, a steady, low dose of hormones are delivered into the blood stream to utilize whenever the body needs it. This slow release helps keep blood levels balanced throughout the day.
-
Right Dose of Hormones
Other types of hormone treatments such as creams, pills and patches all deliver inconsistent amounts of hormones into the body. However, pellets are consistent and mimic how the body naturally delivers hormones. You won’t have to remember to take a pill, or be concerned about a patch falling off. Pellets are the only hormone delivery system that provides consistent blood serum levels over time.
-
Promotes Bone Density
As we age, maintaining normal bone density becomes important to good health. Estrogen and testosterone levels can shift dramatically. This shift can decrease bone density and strength, which increases the risk of fractures. Women who experience early menopause are at a greater risk of developing osteoporosis, which makes it essential to regularly check hormone levels.
Pellet implantation has consistently proven more effective than oral, intramuscular, and topical hormone therapy with regard to bone density, sexual function, mood and cognitive function, urinary and vaginal complaints, breast health, lipid profiles, and hormone ratios. Pellet hormone therapy has also been shown to be superior for relief of menopausal symptoms, maintenance of bone density, restoration of sleep patterns, and improvement in sex drive, libido, sexual response and performance.
