Is anyone using this?
What is Pellet Therapy?
This is an old (as old as Premarin) and well-documented method of delivering bioidentical hormones that utilizes small pellets about the size of a grain of rice that are painlessly inserted under the skin (the procedure is less painful than having your blood drawn). We’ve found the easiest and best place to insert them is under the skin of the lateral buttocks. The hormones in the pellets are bioidentical (exact molecular match of human hormone) and consist of either estradiol, the most important of the three female human estrogens, and testosterone. Some women are surprised to hear that they might need testosterone replacement as well as estrogen replacement. Perimenopausal women and post-menopausal women usually need some of both. Testosterone levels are usually around 5-10% that of a man. Testosterone helps with a number of issues including libido, mood stabilization, brain function, and bone density.

My insurance won't pay for that so I use the bioidentical patches and ProGest cream. I did buy some testosterone cream but keep forgetting to use it. I need to see if it increases my energy levels. |

Have not heard of it but DrJ just posted a study on the main page that utilizes them, in case you are interested.

I happened to read about this a while ago, it seems a convenient option for those on HRT (that can use it). |
