What are hormones, and how do they work?

Hormones are chemical messengers produced by glands in the endocrine system that regulate various bodily functions. In women, hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone play crucial roles in reproductive health, mood regulation, metabolism, and more. These hormones circulate through the bloodstream and deliver signals to organs and tissues to perform specific functions. For instance, estrogen helps regulate the menstrual cycle and maintain bone density, while progesterone supports pregnancy.

How hormone imbalance affects women

When your hormones are out of balance, it can affect every aspect of your life. You might experience symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and difficulty sleeping. These imbalances can also impact your menstrual cycle, libido, and even your mental clarity. Over time, hormone imbalances can lead to more serious health issues, such as osteoporosis or heart disease. But you don't have to accept these changes as a normal part of aging—women’s hormone therapy can help you regain control over your life.

Symptoms of hormone imbalance in women:

  • Fatigue and low energy levels
  • Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
  • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
  • Irregular or painful menstrual cycles
  • Hot flashes and night sweats
  • Decreased libido and sexual dysfunction
  • Difficulty sleeping or insomnia
  • Brain fog and memory issues
  • Thinning hair or hair loss
  • Dry skin or changes in skin texture

The solution: women's hormone therapy

Women's hormone therapy is a medical treatment to restore balance to your body's hormone levels, particularly estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. As you age, your hormone levels naturally decline, leading to symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, and weight gain. Hormone therapy helps alleviate these symptoms by replenishing your body's hormones, either through pills, patches, creams, or hormone pellet therapy. By restoring hormonal balance, this therapy can enhance energy levels and help you feel like yourself again.

Our approach: hormone pellet therapy

At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, our approach to hormone therapy includes hormone pellet therapy. This method involves inserting small, customized pellets under your skin that gradually release consistent levels of hormones over time. Pellets provide a steady dose of hormones that match your body's natural release cycle, reducing the risk of fluctuating hormone levels as seen with other methods. Furthermore, the pellets last 3 to 6 months, so you don’t have to worry about the daily application of creams or weekly or biweekly injections at the clinic.

Benefits of women's hormone pellet therapy:

  • Provides consistent hormone levels over time
  • Reduces the risk of hormone fluctuations
  • Requires fewer adjustments compared to other methods
  • Offers a convenient, low-maintenance solution
  • Improves symptoms like fatigue and mood swings
  • Enhances overall energy and well-being
  • Customizable to individual hormonal needs
  • Minimizes the need for daily medication
  • Supports long-term health benefits and stability

What happens during hormone pellet therapy?

You’ll start with a brief, minimally invasive procedure. We’ll insert small pellets, about the size of a grain of rice, under the skin in a quick outpatient appointment. These pellets gradually release hormones into your bloodstream, providing a steady, balanced level. You might experience a slight pinch or discomfort during the insertion, but it's typically well-tolerated. Over the next few weeks, you'll notice gradual improvements in your symptoms as your hormone levels stabilize.

Is there any downtime or recovery period?

You can resume your normal activities right away. The procedure is minimally invasive, so downtime is minimal. You might experience mild soreness or a small bruise at the insertion site, but this typically resolves quickly. Most people find they can return to their daily routine without significant disruption. However, it’s a good idea to avoid strenuous activities or heavy lifting for a short period, as advised by your provider, to minimize any potential discomfort.

When will I see the results? How long do they last?

You may start noticing improvements in your symptoms within a few weeks after your hormone pellet therapy. As the pellets gradually release hormones into your bloodstream, you’ll likely experience enhanced energy, mood stability, and symptom relief. The full effects can take up to 6-8 weeks to become apparent, and they typically last 3-6 months. Regular follow-ups will help us monitor your progress and determine when it’s time for a new pellet insertion.
