BHRT
What is BHRT with pellets?
BHRT is a method of replacing hormones such as testosterone and estradiol with a hormone pellet that is produced at a licensed compound pharmacy. The pellets have molecules of testosterone or estradiol that are identical to the molecular structure of the same hormones that your body produces.
What is the procedure for inserting pellets?
Pellet insertion is a simple in-office procedure performed under local anesthesia. The fatty tissue under the skin, as well as the skin, is anesthetized with lidocaine and a very small tract is made through a small incision in the skin over the upper buttocks. Then, the pellets are inserted into the tract under the skin. The incision site is closed with steri-strips and a see-through bandage is placed over the incision site. The entire procedure is painless and takes about 15 minutes.
