How is HRT administered?

PELLETS

Hormone pellets are small, solid cylinders containing bio identical hormones. They are inserted under the skin, typically in the hip area, during a minor outpatient procedure. Pellets provide a slow, continuous release of hormones over several months.

INJECTIONS

Hormones can be administered through weekly intramuscular injections. In this method, either you or your healthcare professional injects the hormones directly into a muscle or beneath the skin. Injections allow for precise dosing, and the frequency of administration depends on the specific hormone and individual needs.

CREAMS

Topical creams or gels containing hormones are applied to the skin daily. The hormones are absorbed into the bloodstream. Creams offer flexibility in adjusting the dosage and can be applied to specific areas of the body.

Helping You Achieve Success

What is the difference between bioidentical and synthetic hormones?

Bioidentical hormones have a molecular structure identical to the hormones naturally produced by our bodies. They are derived from plant sources and are often custom- compounded to meet individual needs. Synthetic hormones, on the other hand, are chemically different from the body’s natural hormones and are manufactured in a laboratory.

HRT Risks

There are potential risks associated with HRT. These effects depend on the route of

Your provider will explain the potential adverse effects of your particular method of administration, and make sure you have a full understanding of all benefits and risks associated with treatment.
