Hormone therapy pellets are a type of hormone replacement therapy that involves implanting pellets under the skin to release hormones. The pellets are made from organic plant materials and contain hormones like estrogen or testosterone.
How it works
- A doctor inserts the pellets in a small incision in the lower abdomen or buttocks
- The pellets release hormones into the bloodstream over a period of months
- The pellets provide a consistent level of hormones, avoiding the fluctuations of pills, creams, or patches
