Today, we’re going to talk about bioidentical hormone pellets in detail, but in a slightly different way! Read on to see if we’re answering your questions about whether they’re right for you. We’ll ask you at the end! So let’s start with the hormone problem…

If you’ve been trying to figure out how to balance hormones on your own, then you’ve probably already heard everything you can stand about changing your diet, taking supplements, exercising, and getting enough sleep.

And let’s be honest, if you’re suffering from a hormone imbalance that’s causing insomnia, hanging up some black-out curtains and getting your bedroom the right temperature isn’t going to cut it.

Yes, these suggestions may be helpful over the long run, but the fastest way to nip the imbalance in the bud is to treat the underlying cause hormone levels that are no longer in sync with each other and your body.

So What’s the Best Way to Get Hormones Back Into Balance?

The answer? Replace those that your body is no longer producing, or producing in low levels. How do you do that? Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)!

But not any old HRT: We mean BHRTBioidentical hormone replacement therapy. And the fastest and most reliable way to bring hormones back into balance is by using bioidentical hormone pellets.

But we also know that this particular BHRT delivery system isn’t suitable for everyone. The question is, is BHRT pellet therapy right for you?

Do You Have Trouble With Compliance?

You’re not alone! Many people find that pellets change their lives because they don’t have to follow any rules. Neither do they have to get into a ritual that other BHRT delivery systems require.

Moreover, one of the biggest complaints that patients have is the hormone roller coaster effect. It happens like this. If you accidentally don’t take your BHRT pills on time, or miss out on applying the creams and gels regularly, then your body gets irregular dosages of hormones, and you feel the effects. The hills and valleys of the roller coaster become even steeper than before you started treatment.

On the other hand, pellet therapy requires no compliance. Just a willingness to go to the doctor 2-3 times a year. The BHRT pellet does the rest!

Are You Always Reading Labels to Check For All-Natural or Organic Foods?

If you’re serious about only putting natural substances in your body, then bioidentical hormones are going to be a better fit than synthetic hormones.

What are bioidentical hormones? Bioidentical hormones are ones that derive from organic plant materials that mimic the molecular structure of the hormones found in your body.

Are You Sick of Being on the Hormone Rollercoaster?

BHRT pellet therapy can ease your hormone imbalance symptoms and bring your homers back into balance. The pellets release small amounts of hormones directly into your bloodstream, much like your body did before the hormone imbalance.

Do You Prefer Order Over Chaos?

BHRT pellets consistently release hormones into your body 24/7, as we said above. In addition, they also respond to your body’s needs, releasing more hormones in response to physical activity or emotional stress. This can help curb symptoms of a hormone imbalance.

Since bioidentical hormone pellets consistently release hormones into your body for 4-6 months at a time, your doctor will take care of setting your appointments for you. In this way, you can restore order to your life’s chaos!

Are You the Kind of Person to Prefer the One-and-Done Approach of Bioidentical Hormone Pellets?

BHRT pellet therapy is all about convenience. If you prefer to have an app pay your household bills every month instead of doing it manually, then you and BHRT pellet therapy are going to get along superbly!

Forget taking pills every day. Or applying and reapplying cream all day long. Pellets are a one-and-done approach. You go to the doctor, they implant a rice-sized pellet in your arm, hip, or buttock, and you’re done! The pellet will dissolve in 4-6 months and be absorbed into your bloodstream. That’s it! You only need to visit your practitioner 2-3 times per year!

Are You Sick of Having to Go to the Pharmacy and Wait in Line?

Then you’ll love BHRT pellets! They only require a few medical visits per year, when your doctor will reevaluate your hormone levels and insert pellets. That means you won’t be running around picking up pills, patches, or creams.

However, Can You Spare a Couple of Days to Recover After Insertion?

Although there’s little downtime required post pellet insertion, BHRT pellet specialists recommend avoiding strenuous physical activity or prolonged water exposure for the first few days after implantation.

Will You Value the Reliability of Bioidentical Hormone Pellets?

Maybe you’ve heard that BHRT cost is higher than other types of hormone replacement therapy. BHRT with pellets can cost slightly more than other forms of hormone therapy, but professionals recognize that it’s more reliable and effective than other BHRT delivery systems.

Are You Someone Who Likes Customization?

If you don’t think twice about boldly ordering exactly what you want, how you want it from Starbucks, then why not do the same with bioidentical replacement therapies?

If you love having control and getting exactly what you want and need, pellet therapy may be right for you. Why? Because BHRT pellets are compounded. This means that your unique hormone imbalance determines the blend and dose of hormones contained in the pellet.

Have You Had a Bad Experience With Synthetic Hormone Therapy?

If you’ve had adverse effects with synthetic hormones, or they didn’t work for you, BHRT pellet therapy could be the solution you’ve been looking for. Bioidentical hormone pellets contain bioidentical hormones (obviously!). But the key here is that since the hormones in bioidentical pellets are identical to those your body produces, your body should accept them easily with no adverse side effects.
