What To Expect
If you strive for a healthy lifestyle to feel your best but still struggle with symptoms like fatigue, trouble thinking, slow metabolism, or more, you could benefit from hormone therapy near Brainerd from Baxter Medical Center. Reach out and we'll schedule a consultation.
During your initial consultation, your provider performs a thorough physical exam and then orders a blood test to measure your hormone levels. If hormone therapy near Brainerd is determined to be the right path, your provider will insert the hormone pellet (about the size of a grain of rice) beneath your skin where it will dissolve over several months, releasing hormones into your bloodstream.
After your appointment, your provider will let you know your specific next steps and how to maximize the effects of your hormone replacement therapy.
How Does Hormone Pellet Therapy Work?
Hormones delivered by pellet therapy offer several benefits. They bypass the liver, do not affect clotting factors, do not increase the risk of thrombosis, and avoid the fluctuations of hormone levels some patients may experience. The BioTE bioidentical hormone pellets used by Baxter Medical Center are made from soy or the yam plant to create estradiol and/or testosterone molecules. Synthetic hormones, by contrast, are made from animal parts or urine and have a different molecular structure than those hormones when produced by your body.
