HORMONE PELLETING

Hormone pellets offer a convenient and consistent method of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) that can be especially beneficial for individuals seeking long-term hormonal balance. Compared to other modalities like pills, troches, creams, or injections; pellets:

1. Provide steady hormone levels – They release hormones gradually over time, avoiding the fluctuations often seen with other forms. 
2. Require less maintenance – Inserted under the skin every 3–6 months, they eliminate the need for daily or weekly dosing.
3. Mimic natural hormone delivery – Pellets release hormones directly into the bloodstream, similar to how the body naturally functions.
4. May improve adherence – Their “set-it-and-forget-it” nature can enhance compliance, especially for those with busy lifestyles.

Compared to other companies, EVEXIAS:

• Compresses their pellets horizontally instead of vertically, allowing for a more even release of hormone over the course of 3-6 months.
• Pellets contain a small amount of triamcinolone to help reduce swelling and discomfort to the insertion site.
• Has created a custom insertion tool and method that reduces trauma and bleeding to the site which allows for a reduction in scar tissue formation and improves client satisfaction with the procedure and post procedure healing time. 

Common symptoms that suggest your hormones are not optimized include: weight gain, loss of focus, muscle and joint pain, increase in chronic pain, hot flashes, night sweats, decreased sex drive, feeling "blah," depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, rapid aging, and many others.

Optimizing hormones not only help us FEEL BETTER, but natural bio-identical hormone optimization has also proven protective against heart disease, dementia, and osteoporosis. There are even studies that show natural and bio-identical hormone optimization can be protective against some cancers.

Most clients who choose pelleting as their form of hormone optimization, plan to use them long term. Female clients should be pelleted every 3-4 months, while males are typically pelleted every 4-6 months. EMBODY Health recommends keeping a schedule of pellet placement every 3.5 months for females and every 5 months for males to ensure optimization of hormone levels and symptom management.

The procedure itself takes less than 15 minutes. Clients should reduce activities that will cause sweating of flexing of the muscles around the insertion site for 3-7 days.

A comprehensive lab panel is recommended to get started on Hormone Pellets, as well as every year. 

Post pellet labs are required 4 weeks after the procedure with a followup visit 5 weeks after the procedure to ensure optimal dosing.
