Pellet Implants – The Best In Hormone Replacement Therapy

There are many drawbacks to conventional hormone therapy replacements. There can be side affects and/or other health risks with topical or oral methods. With topical there is always a significant risk of transfer to other people through direct contact, contact with bed sheets, clothing etc. that can be detrimental when transferred to children or other adults. Pellets provide a great alternative.

Data supports that testosterone implants effectively treat symptoms in both men and women. Implants, placed under the skin, consistently release small, physiologic doses of hormones providing optimal therapy without adverse effects.

Pellets, or implants are made up of hormones (i.e. testosterone) that are pressed or fused into very small solid cylinders. These pellets are larger than a grain of rice and smaller than a ‘Tic Tac’. In the United States, the majority of pellets are made by compounding pharmacists and delivered in sterile glass vials. There is a ‘FDA approved’ 75 mg testosterone pellet.

Pellets deliver consistent, healthy levels of hormones for 3-4 months in women and 4-5 months in men. They avoid the fluctuations, or ups and downs, of hormone levels seen with every other method of delivery. This is important for optimal health and disease prevention. Pellets do not increase the risk of blood clots like conventional or synthetic hormone replacement therapy.

In studies, when compared to conventional hormone replacement therapy, pellets have been shown to be superior for relief of menopausal symptoms, maintenance of bone density, restoration of sleep patterns, and improvement in sex drive, libido, sexual response and performance.

Testosterone delivered by a pellet implant, has been used to treat migraine and menstrual headaches. It also helps with vaginal dryness, incontinence, urinary urgency and frequency. In both men and women, testosterone has been shown to increase energy, relieve depression, increase sense of well being, relieve anxiety and improve memory and concentration. Testosterone, delivered by pellet implant, increases lean body mass (muscle strength, bone density) and decreases fat mass. Men and women need adequate levels of testosterone for optimal mental and physical health and for the prevention of chronic illnesses like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, which are associated with low testosterone levels.

Even patients who have failed other types of hormone therapy have a very high success rate with pellets. There is no other ‘method of hormone delivery’ that is as convenient for the patient as the implants. Implants have been used in both men and women since the late 1930’s. There is significant data that supports the use of testosterone implants in both men and women.

Some patients begin to ‘feel better’ within 24-48 hours while others may take a week or two to notice a difference. Diet and lifestyle, along with hormone balance are critical for optimal health. Stress is a major contributor to hormone imbalance and illness. Side effects and adverse drug events from prescription medications can interfere with the beneficial effects of the testosterone implant.

Enjoy an Improved Sex Life

Sex is both a primary enforcer and, under normal circumstances, a healthy natural drive. Many men and women however never fully experience the joy of a fulfilling sex life. For those who suffer from sexual dysfunction or loss of interest, thoughts of sexual intimacy can be painful, embarrassing, and discouraging. A fulfilling and joyful sex life is important in maintaining a healthy romantic adult relationship. Depending on the people involved, sex may have varying levels of importance in a relationship but it is always important to some level. Great sex life brings couples closer and enhances the relationship. A poor sex life can often do just the opposite. Poor sexual performance and/or an inability to fully enjoy the experience can lead to resentment, embarrassment, feelings of isolation and feelings of inadequacy (on the part of one or both partners) and can be a terrible blow to the person’s self esteem. Sexual intimacy provides partners with a unique and personal means of communication and an intimate feeling of being cared for and loved. As well it provides great physical pleasure and stimulation.
