A new service offered at both Horizon Med-Spa in High Point, NC and at our Horizon Internal Medicine facilities in Asheboro, NC, Ramseur, NC and the new High Point, NC facility. Hormone Replacement Therapy Pellets. In addition to hormone pills, patches, and creams that can be prescribed during menopause and andropause, bio-identical hormones can be custom-formulated for your specific needs. Unlike traditional HRT options, pellets are the only delivery system that provides a steady blood serum level over time and the chemical structure of the hormones is the same as those naturally produced in your body.
Upon scheduling a visit with our provider, we will take a thorough history including whether you have previously used other HRT methods. You will have blood work drawn to determine if you are a candidate for hormone pellets, then you will schedule an appointment for pellet insertion. The pellets are very small and compounded specifically for you in a nationally-accredited, sterile pharmacy. They are inserted in the office and the insertion process is generally painless.
Benefits of Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy Pellets include:
- Alleviation of menopause and andropause symptoms, including sleep problems, mood swings, increased body fat, decreased libido and sexual function, hot flashes, night sweats, and anxiety
- Re-establishing the protective benefits of balanced hormone levels, such as improved bone density, improved cardiovascular health, and enhanced immune function
- Reversal of conditions associated with aging like osteoporosis, loss of strength, fatigue, exercise intolerance, decreasing muscle mass, and poor mental clarity
