Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
How Does Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy Work?
The first step to BHRT is to establish a baseline to discover what your current hormone levels are. If it’s found that you are hormone deficient, then hormone supplementation can be administered in one of several safe and effective options. The results are usually noticeable within several weeks after the treatment has started.

Types of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
We have several treatment options for Bioidentical Replacement Therapy that meet the specific needs of many different types of patients.
Cream Applications
Cream applicators come in a variety of bases. The creams are applied daily, and the hormone is absorbed through the skin and interacts with the hormone receptors for desired results.
Injections
Testosterone can be injected intramuscularly in areas like the gluteal muscle. Formats include Testosterone Cypionate, Enanthate, and Propionate in either a Grapeseed or Sesame oil base.
Pellet Insertions
Hormone Pellets are inserted below the surface of the skin and gradually release the desired hormone into the body. A simple procedure is performed in our office every 4-5 months.
