Pellet Hormone Therapy

Meaning

Pellet Hormone Therapy is a specific, long-acting method of hormone replacement in which bio-identical hormones are compacted into small, sterile cylindrical pellets that are subcutaneously inserted into the fat tissue. This delivery system is designed to provide a continuous, sustained release of the hormone directly into the systemic circulation over a period of several months. The therapy is used to address hormonal deficiencies, such as those associated with andropause or menopause, aiming for stable physiological hormone levels. This technique offers a unique pharmacokinetic profile compared to daily oral or transdermal methods.
