Bioidentical hormones can be compounded for each individual and fused into very small cylinders. Hormone Pellets are smaller than a grain of rice and are placed right beneath the skin, usually in the area of the hip. Pellet therapy is a simple, relatively painless procedure done under local anesthesia. Hormone pellets deliver consistent, healthy levels of hormones, thus avoiding hormone fluctuations throughout the day. Hormone pellets typically last for four months.

Peptides are short-chain amino acids. They are the building blocks of all proteins in the body, including growth hormones. The production of peptides in individuals can vary greatly, and we generally see a decline in our bodies’ production of peptides as we age. This is where peptide therapy comes in. HGH peptides like Sermorelin and Ibutamoren promote the natural production of HGH. Their purpose is to stimulate the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland. The goal of HGH peptide therapy is to naturally stimulate your body’s own growth hormone production.

Men experience hormonal changes similar to menopause when testosterone levels begin to decline. These symptoms are called andropause. Symptoms of andropause include:

• Fatigue
• Low libido
• Erectile changes
• Poor focus
• Low motivation
• Mood changes

Testosterone therapy for men is available in creams, injections, and pellets. Testosterone pellets provide the most stable, steady dose of testosterone, typically providing the needed level of testosterone for four months.
