Bio-identical Hormone replacement Therapy

Hormone therapy is the treatment of symptoms or disease with  synthetic or naturally-derived hormones. When the body produces too  little of a particular hormone, hormone replacement therapy is necessary  to replenish stores and maintain natural production levels. 

Bio-identical  hormone replacement therapy is the natural option for hormone therapy.  Bio-identical hormones are derived from natural sources and designed to  be structurally identical to the hormones produced naturally by the  human body. 

Unlike synthetic hormones, bio-identical hormones are  an exact structural match to your own hormones. This feature allows the  supplemented hormones to fit perfectly into your body’s hormone  receptors thereby reducing possible side effects and increasing the  effectiveness of the treatment. Efficacy and outcomes are further  improved when hormone pellet therapy is the method of delivery. 

We use EvexiPEL® pellets as our perferred method of hormone replacement therapy.  Hormone pellet therapy is the preferred method of hormone replacement  therapy among both patients and providers because of its convenience  and efficacy. When compared to other delivery methods, natural hormone  pellet therapy offers numerous benefits including: 

• Convenient: EvexiPEL hormone pellets are inserted  under the top layer of skin during a short, routine visit. Replacement  is required just two to four times per year. No more hassling with daily  pills or messy creams and gels. 
• Better bioavailability: Hormone pellets are absorbed through cardiac output, mimicking your body’s natural pathway for delivery. 
• Natural release: EvexiPEL hormone pellets slowly  dissolve releasing just the right amount of hormone to support your  body’s needs. You achieve steady, optimal dosing throughout each  treatment cycle compared to injections, pills, creams, or gels. 
• Fewer side effects: Each custom-compounded EvexiPEL pellet  contains bioidentical hormones designed to be structurally identical to  the hormones made naturally by your body. This means your body can  easily adapt to the supplement, improving the speed of treatment and  effectiveness without fear of side effects commonly associated with  non-bioidentical hormone therapies.

In addition to hormone replacement therapy, Dr. Dalton can make diet, exercise, and medication recommendations to support your overall health through  menopause.  

The onset of menopause coincides with the  age range at which some serious chronic health conditions become common.  The incidence of breast cancer, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes,  osteoporosis, and dementia all rise during this stage of life.

Hormone replacement  therapy for menopause may provide a protective effect as women enter  this important transition. As researchers continue to explore the  connection between hormones and the chronic health conditions associated  with aging, women must be proactive to minimize risk factors and  maximize quality of life.

Many of the symptoms that affect women with hormonal imbalance are  related to drops in estrogen. Low estrogen levels in women can  contribute to low libido, vaginal dryness, hot flashes, night sweats,  and mood swings. 

Estrogen replacement therapy is an effective  treatment for estrogen imbalance. In many cases, bio-identical estrogen  therapy paired with bio-identical progesterone and bio-identical  testosterone supports complete symptom relief and helps reduce risk of  disease. 

A 2016 study found that estrogen hormone therapy  effectively increased libido in postmenopausal women. When low-dose  estrogen therapy was paired with testosterone therapy, sexual desire was  further enhanced. 

EvexiPEL estradiol pellet therapy is  considered the superior choice in estrogen pellet therapy. The  bio-identical hormones that comprise each pellet are compounded by expert  pharmacists at an FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facility. The exact amount of estradiol needed is  sourced from plants, like yams, cactus, or soy, and formed into pellets  by an expert pharmacist. 

Testosterone therapy is effective for symptoms of hormone imbalance  in men and women. Though commonly believed to be the “male hormone,”  testosterone is extremely important to female health and well-being. 

Testosterone plays a role in healthy weight management, brain  function, cardiovascular health, as well as sexual function and desire.  Low levels of testosterone in women or men can lead to undesirable  symptoms making even simple daily tasks seem unbearable. Low  testosterone can cause you to feel sluggish and tired all the time, as  well as impact your focus, memory, muscle definition and libido. 

Testosterone hormone therapy effectively treats low testosterone in  men and women. The most effective treatment options  use EvexiPEL bio-identical hormone pellets.  

EvexiPEL testosterone pellet therapy has a reputation for being the  superior choice in hormone pellet therapy. EvexiPEL testosterone pellets  are custom-compounded at an FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facility. The expert pharmacists extract the exact  amount of testosterone needed from plant sources, like yams, cactus, or  soy, and form them into pellets.
