Women’s Hormone Replacement Therapy

Getting older doesn’t mean you have to lose control over how you look and feel. Our women’s hormone therapy helps to reverse the effects of aging by giving your body what it needs to restore natural balance.

What is hormone therapy?

For many women, hormone therapy is an effective solution for moderate to severe menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, brain fog, and much more. By creating a unique bio-identical hormone therapy program, these symptoms are much improved, and other imbalances that cause issues like adrenal fatigue, thyroid disorders, PMS, and peri-menopause are also reversed.

How is hormone therapy administered?

Our hormone therapy at Genesis involves replacing hormones when the body is no longer able to make them after menopause or during pre-menopause. These hormones are replaced via pellet insertion, typically in the hip or buttock area. 

How bio-identical hormone pellets work

The pellets release small amounts of the needed hormone directly into the bloodstream in a similar way that your ovaries would have naturally released it. Bio-identical pellets contain nothing except the hormone, which means that there is no risk as the pellets are completely dissolved and absorbed by your body.

Key benefits of hormone replacement therapy

Women who choose our unique bio-identical hormone replacement therapy see a dramatic improvement in the way their body functions. Each of our customized treatment plans are developed to improve four major areas of your health and well-being:

Energy

Rebalancing the hormones in your body improves your overall energy, enabling you to create and maintain lean muscle.

Libido

Giving your body the right hormones will help increase your sex drive. 

Mood

By stabilizing your overall mood, our treatments reduce depression and irritability, which improves general health and well-being.

Cardiovascular system

When your body has the right balance of hormones, the heart stays healthier and blood vessels do their job better, giving oxygen and nutrients to the entire body. 

Pellet treatment details

When you arrive at your hormone replacement therapy appointment, we will prepare you for the pellet insertion. Generally, the pellet is implanted in the hip/buttock area. The area of skin will be sterilized, then numbed with an injection. Once the area is numb, the pellet will be inserted into the tissue using a small device that creates a track under the skin. The average pellet comes in a 100-milligram dose. After the pellet has been inserted, the puncture will be covered with tape, gauze, and perhaps an ice pack to help with any swelling and bruising.

Recovery and results

Be careful to avoid getting the dressing wet for 24 hours, and avoid any physical activity that may stretch that part of your skin for two days. The pellet’s benefits will last 3 to 6 months, at which time you can receive another if it’s working for you.
