Pellets for Optimal Hormone Balance


A number of people on Hormone Replacement for years still struggle with being balanced.
One of the issues I frequently see is what I call "Skin Fatigue". (I COINED THIS PHRASE)
You have to realize that our skin's primary function is to protect our inner environment from the outside world. In other words, our skin is a "Barrier". When we apply hormone creams to the skin we are trying to overcome it's primary function; Keeping things out of our body!
I have many women patients who have done well with creams for years to suddenly find a re-occurance of menopausal symptoms.
What is going on?
Well, basically the skin is doing it's job.It is keeping things out of the body. Can you imagine what you would feel like if your skin let EVERYTHING absorb into your body? Oh my God, you would be so sick.
Well, your skin unfortunately can't differentiate between what you want to absorb into your body and what you don't. To help enhance hormone cream absorption, I often advise my women patients to do things like exfoliate the area where the cream is applied, or apply it to mucus membranes like the perineum, vaginal labia or rectum. Many women don't like the feeling of creams on the genitals. I often hear the concern of getting the hormones on male partners,and the men are not happy with that either.
What is a post menopausal woman to do ?

PELLETS !

I have been using hormone pellets more and more with my patients with great success. There is no concern about absorption. No concern about getting them on others. And we are getting great levels with minimal effort and inconvenience. The only thing needed is to take progesterone capsules for two weeks each month, and return to the office to place new pellets every 4 months or so.
Hormone pellets deliver the most consistent and reliable levels of hormones. They are the most predictable modality of hormone delivery. They are the most convenient. They cost almost the same as creams. They have the least side effects and complications. They last about 4-5 months and then need to be replaced. They completely dissolve and do not need to be removed. 
I place them under the skin in the upper buttock area in a painless 10 min office procedure with no down time.

Call the office if you would like more information or to discuss whether pellets would be good for you. 
And of course, if you like, just go ahead and schedule your pellet insertion 
appointment. 
HORMONE PELLET FAQ's

INTRODUCTION

Evidence indicates that hormone replacement therapy with pellet implants is the most effective and the most bio-identical method to deliver hormones in both men and women.  Pellets, smaller than a "tic-tac" but larger than a grain of rice, placed under the skin, consistently release small, physiologic doses of hormones directly into the blood stream mimicking natural ovarian or testicle function,and thus providing optimal hormonal therapy.

  

WHY ARE PELLETS BETTER THAN OTHER DELIVERY SYSTEMS ?
 Pellets deliver consistent, healthy levels of hormones for 3-5 months in women and 4-6 months in men. They avoid the fluctuations, or ups and downs, of hormone levels seen with every other method of delivery. Estrogen delivered by subcutaneous pellets, maintains the normal ratio of estradiol to estrone. 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.

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.
 Pellets have been used in both men and women since the late 1930's. There is more data to support the use of pellets than any other method of delivery of hormones.  
WHY DO I NEED TESTOSTERONE?
  Testosterone replacement for women in menopause,delivered by pellet implantation, has been shown to decrease breast proliferation and lower the risk of breast cancer, even in patients on conventional hormone replacement therapy. Clinical studies show that bio-identical testosterone balances estrogen and is breast protective.  
 CAN HORMONE REPLACEMENT WITH PELLETS HELP WITH HAIR LOSS ?
Hormone deficiency is a common cause of hair loss in menopause. Treatment with estradiol and testosterone implants can help to re-grow hair.   Hair becomes thicker and less dry with pellet therapy.  
 
  HOW LONG AFTER PELLETS ARE INSERTED WILL I FEEL BETTER ?
Some patients begin to 'feel better' within 24-48 hours while others may take a week or two to notice a difference.    
 
 WHY DO I NEED TO TAKE PROGESTERONE?
When I prescribe estradiol, progesterone is also needed even if the patient has had a hysterectomy. The main indication for the use of progesterone is to prevent the proliferation (stimulation) of the uterine lining caused by estrogen.  However, there are progesterone receptors in the bone, brain, heart, bladder, breast and uterus where progesterone has been shown to have beneficial effects.  Progesterone can be used as a topical cream, a vaginal cream, an oral capsule (Prometrium), or sublingual drops. However, data shows the best results with oral capsules or sublingual drops.
 
In conclusion, estradiol(sometimes with estriol or Bi-est) and testosterone therapy by implantation of pellets is a safe and effective method of hormone therapy for both men and women. Long, continuous administration of hormones by pellets is convenient and economical for the patient. Pellet implantation has consistently proven more effective than oral, intramuscular, and topical hormone therapy with regard to bone density, sexual function, mood and cognitive function, urinary and vaginal complaints, breast health, lipid profiles, hormone ratios and metabolites.
