Pellets

How do they deliver?

Pellets are small, rice grain-sized capsules that a
healthcare provider implants under the skin, typically in
the hip area. These pellets are packed with hormones and designed to slowly dissolve, releasing a steady amount of hormones into your body over an extended period ranging from 3 to 6 months.

Prime Advantages of Hormone Pellets:
Sustained Release and Convenience

Long-Term Stability: Pellets excel in maintaining a stable level of hormones in the body for an extended period, which can help stabilize mood and energy levels.
Infrequent Replacement: With pellets, you're looking at a 'set it and forget it' type of treatment. Once implanted, there's no daily or weekly dosing to worry about.
Consistent Delivery: Because pellets release hormones consistently, they avoid the highs and lows often associated with other methods.

Considerations for Pellet Therapy

Procedure Required:

The implantation of pellets is a minor
surgical procedure done under local
anesthesia. It's quick, but it does
require a visit to a healthcare
provider.

Risk of Complications:

Though generally safe, the
procedure carries a small risk of
complications such as infection or
the pellet working its way out,
known as extrusion.

Monitoring:

Your hormone levels will need
monitoring, especially when
starting pellet therapy, to find the
right dosage and timing for pellet
replacements.
