Frequently Asked Questions
2. How do I know if I need hormone therapy?
Before hormones are optimized you may be feeling a handful of symptoms such as lack of energy, difficulty sleeping at night, reduced mental focus and memory, mood swings, weight gain, decreased muscle strength, reduced sexual desire and performance.
3. What are hormone pellets?
Hormone pellet therapy is one of the treatments used for hormone imbalances. With pellets, a person doesn’t experience the highs and lows and inconsistency from other testosterone and estradiol therapy. The pellets are released into your bloodstream based on cardiac output, meaning the more active you are the more the hormone is released.
