Hormones are responsible for our well-being, mental clarity and focus, sexual desire and many other functions needed for a happy, healthy life. As men and women age, this delicate balance of hormones is no longer in "sync". In women, these hormonal imbalances maybe due to estrogen, progesterone, testosterone or even thyroid levels.
A few of the physical symptoms of hormone deficiency that women may experience include:
-
Poor Concentration
-
Exercising not as Effective or Enjoyable
-
Pain with Intercourse
-
Fatigue
-
Insomnia/Restless Sleep
-

Hormone Related Migraine

-
Hot Flashes
-

-

-

The body's natural function beautifully orchestrates a delicate balance and release of hormones throughout the body. Hormones are the chemical messengers that keep our bodies in rhythm and are responsible for our well-being, our mental clarity and focus, our sexual desire and many other functions needed for a happy and healthy life.

What about Women and Testosterone?
Women also produce testosterone, but in much smaller amounts than men. If levels of this hormone are below normal, women may struggle with a loss of libido, fatigue and depression.
Currently, the FDA has not approved any testosterone treatments for women. However, off-label use of testosterone therapy for post-menopausal women is relatively common, particularly in women suffering from a low sex drive. Like men, women should discuss the risks and benefits of hormone therapy with Dr. Schultis to be sure they understand the potential outcomes of treatment.
What EXACTLY is BHRPT?
Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy is a precision method of delivery the hormones your body needs to achieve a balanced state. The hormones are pressed into pellets which look like very small cylinders. Dr. Schultis or her NP will insert the pellets under the skin and release a steady stream of hormones 24/7. Pellets deliver consistent and healthy levels of hormones for 3 - 4 months in women.
How are BHRPT pellets inserted?
BHRPT insertion is a fast, simple in office medical procedure performed with local anesthetics. The pellets will be inserted in the fatty layer beneath the skin. A small incision is made in the upper buttocks. The entire process takes just minutes.
What side effects can I expect?
One of the greatest advantages of pellet therapy is the low incidence of side effects. Although extremely rare side effects may include: slight bruising, minor bleeding, infection or extrusion of the pellets.
BHRPT is by prescription only. Remember, it is important to see an experienced hormone specialist who prescribes the correct dosage and proper placement of the pellet.
