Women’s delicate interplay of hormones, governing various aspects of their well-being, and hormonal imbalances can lead to a wide array of physical and emotional symptoms.

Women’s delicate interplay of hormones, governing various aspects of their well-being, and hormonal imbalances can lead to a wide array of physical and emotional symptoms.

While it’s common to attribute fatigue to a lack of sleep or a busy lifestyle, there’s a crucial factor that often goes unnoticed: hormone imbalance.
Bio-identical hormone therapy (BHRT) is a groundbreaking treatment designed to restore hormonal balance using hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by your body. Unlike traditional hormone replacement therapies, BHRT offers a more personalized approach, allowing for precise adjustments based on individual needs. In this section, we’ll explore how BHRT provides more effective symptom relief with fewer side effects, offering long-term benefits for conditions like menopause, thyroid imbalances, and adrenal fatigue.
Additionally, we’ll delve into how bio-identical hormones work, how they’re administered, and why more individuals are turning to this option for a healthier, more vibrant life. Read on to understand why BHRT is a preferred solution and how it can make a difference in your well-being.
Bio-identical hormones are plant-based hormones that are the same as the natural hormones produced by your body. Thera P makes custom hormone pellets that are tailored to each patient’s needs.
Hormones are important for good health, energy, youthfulness, libido, sleep, strength, and overall wellness. As we age, our natural hormone production decreases, which can cause imbalances that can negatively impact our quality of life.
Symptoms such as hair loss, hot flashes, low energy, loss of libido, vaginal dryness, insomnia, brain fog, weight gain, irritability, mood swings, and dry skin can affect not only the woman experiencing them, but also those around her, such as family and friends. Thera P’s hormone pellets are meant to balance your hormones. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, please contact us at (954) 384-8668. We can help you determine if pellets are right for you.
The insertion of pellets is a simple, painless procedure done with a local numbing agent. The pellets are inserted in the upper buttocks through a tiny incision which is closed up with a steri-strip. The entire procedure takes about 2 minutes. You can return to your everyday life immediately after the pellet is inserted.
Bio-identical hormone pellets typically last 4 to 6 months, depending on individual factors such as metabolism, activity level, and hormone needs. Over time, the pellets gradually release a steady dose of hormones, and when their effects begin to fade, symptoms like fatigue or mood swings may return. You can continue to resupply the pellets as needed to maintain a consistent flow of hormones and ensure optimal symptom relief. Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider will help determine the best timing for replacement.

Yes, you will need to get blood work done before treatment. We calculate the dosing of your bio-identical pellets based on your history, age, weight, and blood work. We continue to monitor your blood levels throughout the lifecycle of your pellet treatments and pride ourselves on understanding your body so we can give you the precise compound it needs.
Bio-identical hormones have an identical chemical structure to those produced by the body. Synthetic hormones do not have a chemical structure that is identical to a person’s natural hormones.
The key benefit of bio-identical hormones is their ability to mimic the body’s natural processes more closely, which often leads to more effective treatment with fewer side effects. Synthetic hormones, being chemically different, may not integrate as smoothly into the body’s system, potentially leading to more adverse reactions. Many people find that bio-identical hormones provide a more personalized and natural approach to hormone therapy. Learn more about the differences between synthetic and bioidentical hormones.
Most patients begin to feel the effects and experience benefits within 2-7 days following the procedure. Peak effects are generally felt within a month and can be maintained as long as the patient resupplies as needed, generally every 4-6 months.
