What is Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy?

Testosterone, progesterone and estrogen are incredibly  important for both women and men to help promote and protect the health of the bones, heart, brain, breast, and  relationships. 
Bio-identical Hormone Therapy or BHRT treats symptoms and signs of ageing while  helping to prevent age-related chronic illnesses by bio-identically supplementing the hormones your body that will help to keep age-related issues at bay.

​

​

Who can Qualify for Hormone Therapy or BHRT?

Your provider will test your hormone levels, if your levels are low you will most likely qualify. Your provider will discuss any conditions that may disqualify you prior to your treatment.

​

​

Exhausted? Clouded thinking? Trouble falling or staying asleep? Trouble with gaining weight? Low to no sex drive?

As we age, we often start to experience lower levels of specific hormones. With the Biote Hormone Pellet (No bigger than a grain of rice) we would bio-identically replace those hormones to reclaim your long-term health.
