Menopause marks a significant change in a woman’s life. Perhaps you recognize the changes in your body and overall self, and maybe you’ve caught yourself wondering if you’ll ever feel “normal” again. The answer is that you are not alone, and so many women have been precisely where you are right now. More importantly, the answer is also that there is hope. While you may have heard your fair share of horror stories regarding this season of life, know that there is help out there.
Common Symptoms of Menopause
Menopause is a significant point in a woman’s life because it is marked by hormonal changes. Specifically, this occurs because a woman’s ovaries are ceasing the production of hormones. Menopause comes with a variety of symptoms that can range in severity and can impact women in a different way. Some of the most common symptoms that women encounter includes:
- Vaginal dryness
- Hot flashes
- Sleep disturbance
- Mood changes
While this time of transition can certainly be overwhelming at times, there are a variety of solutions out there. One of the most beneficial options is BioTE Hormone Therapy. Let’s take a look at what this is and how it can help some of the symptoms you may experience during this time of life.
What is BioTE Hormone Therapy?
BioTE hormone therapy allows women to supplement their lost hormones and regain balance in their life.
BioTE Hormone Therapy is specially designed to help women with the various symptoms associated with menopause. Rather than relying on synthetic options from animals, this allows women to instead use naturally-derived hormones from plants. This type of hormone resembles those that are naturally created by the body.

Why Pellet Therapy is Better
Pellet therapy refers to an insert that is placed in the hip area. The pellets are made with a compound of hormones and natural binders that keep the insert together and effective in treating hormonal imbalance issues. Pellets can only be created in one of two pharmacies located in the US and must be tested for consistency to make sure that the properties are correct.
Pellet therapy is a preferred hormone replacement option simply because it is naturally derived and are customized to suit each woman’s individual needs. The personalized approach is based on saliva, serum and blood tests and then the pellets are compounded in a pharmacy and sent directly to the provider.
Rather than relying on a pill or other hormonal dosages that are often irregular, pellet therapy is used throughout the day to help women maintain a consistent hormone level. The results are fewer symptoms and more regularity in mood.
Pellet Insertion Method
Pellet insertion is a simple and effective process. First, you must visit your provider and have your current hormone levels tested. Following a series of test, you will then be given a customized pellet therapy regime. It is then inserted in the appropriate area, and follow-up tests are conducted to make sure that the therapy is effective.
