What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy?
As we age, our bodies naturally produce fewer hormones like testosterone and estrogen. These hormones play a crucial role in how various parts of our bodies function, including the brain, heart, bones, and reproductive organs. When hormone levels become unbalanced, it can lead to various symptoms. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) aims to restore this balance by providing hormones that are identical in structure to those naturally produced by your body. This helps alleviate symptoms, as your body recognizes and utilizes these replacement hormones just like its own.
The Biote Method utilizes tiny pellets, similar in size to a grain of rice, for hormone optimization. At Examined Life in York, Maine, your provider inserts these pellets under the skin during a simple in-office procedure. These pellets dissolve gradually over several months, typically requiring re-administration every 3-5 months based on individual patient needs. As they dissolve, they release hormones steadily into the bloodstream for the body's utilization. Eventually, the pellets are fully absorbed, leaving no residue behind.
Symptoms of Hormone Imbalance
Hormones play a crucial role in keeping our bodies running smoothly. When these hormones get out of balance, it can affect many aspects of our health. This imbalance can happen when there's too much or too little of a hormone in our bloodstream. For women, menopause often brings a drop in estrogen and testosterone levels, while men may experience a similar decline in testosterone called andropause, also known as Low T (low testosterone).
