Both men and women can suffer from the effects of hormone loss. With women, they can begin to lose both estrogen and testosterone, while men only lose testosterone. Good levels of these hormones are required to keep all humans in the very tip top condition of health. At Buchanan Health Center, our health professionals offer a revolutionary new type of hormone replacement therapy called BioTE.
BioTE hormone replacement therapy is pure hormone with no byproducts, and it is delivered via small, rice-sized pellets inserted under the skin. The process of inserting the pellets is entirely pain-free. Putting them under the skin allows the pellets to deliver precise doses of the correct hormones for your individual needs, and even adjust the dose over time, as needed. The hormones used in BioTE are derived from plants, so they are all-natural and work perfectly with your body as if your body produced them on its own. Most patients who receive this therapy report a greatly increased quality of life.
