What is BHRT?
BHRT is implemented into the body via pellet insertion. Your medical provider will numb you and then the pellet will be inserted into an area such as the upper buttock area. This procedure is a quick, easy outpatient procedure that will consistently release the necessary hormones over the upcoming months.
BHRT pellets are specially customized capsules that are created based on your specific hormone tests, in order to provide you with optimal hormone balance. These special “bioidentical” hormones are identified as such because they are identical in molecular structure to your body’s natural hormones. It should also be stated that BHRT pellets themselves come from plant sources and not animal sources, such as non-bioidentical synthetic hormones.
When will the results come from BHRT?
As soon as 7-10 days post-insertion, you can expect to find symptom relief. Balancing hormones can be a bit of a waiting game, however, once you achieve optimal balance for your body you can anticipate dramatic symptom relief. Many of our patients have expressed that they finally feel like their best selves again!
How often do I need BHRT treatment?The exact number of treatments will vary depending on the individual, however, BHRT pellets usually last for three to six months. There are other variables that play into this timeline as well such as the number of hormones already in your body currently, your weight, your sex, and also your metabolism.Your care provider at our medical spa will recommend a treatment schedule for you, but typically two to four times a year will keep your hormones balanced and keep you feeling awesome!Interested in BHRT and want more information on how to restore your vibrancy?
