What is hormone replacement therapy for women?
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women involves the administration of synthetic or bioidentical hormones to address hormonal imbalances. Typically used to alleviate symptoms of menopause or other hormone-related conditions, HRT can involve estrogen alone or estrogen with progesterone or progestin. These hormones are administered via pills, patches, creams, gels, or injections to restore hormone levels to a more balanced state. HRT is tailored to your needs, symptoms, medical history, and personal preferences.
We offer bio-identical hormone pellets for natural, sustained hormone release
Hormone pellet therapy involves the insertion of tiny, custom-compounded pellets under the skin, typically in the hip or buttock area. These pellets, containing bio-identical hormones derived from plant sources, release hormones into the bloodstream over several months. This ensures a consistent hormone level, mimicking the body's physiological rhythm more closely. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we offer bio-identical hormone pellets as part of our HRT options, providing women with a convenient way to achieve sustained symptom relief.
