What is optimizing hormones? Is Bio-Identical Hormone therapy right for Me?
Optimizing hormones refers to the process of balancing and fine-tuning the levels of various hormones in the body to promote overall health and well-being. Hormones play a crucial role in regulating numerous bodily functions, including metabolism, growth and development, reproduction, mood, sleep, and immune function. When hormone levels are imbalanced, it can lead to a wide range of health issues and symptoms.
Any of these symptoms sound familiar?
Men: Low sex drive | Fatigue | Loss of muscle mass | Increased body fat (especially in the waist area) | Decreased bone mass | Mood changes | Low mood | Irritability | Brain fog | Elevated blood sugar | Stress | Anxiety | High cholesterol
Women: Fatigue | Night sweats | Hot flashes | Decreased sex drive | Weight gain | Insomnia | Irritability | Anxiousness | Mood swings | Depression | Vaginal Dryness
Our Approach
Does your body look like your friends? Probably not. What about your husband’s or your wife’s? Definitely not. So, why should your hormone care be the same too. We take time to discuss what optimized hormones means for you and what therapy option is best for your lifestyle.
Why Replace Hormones…
Bioidentical hormones are hormones that have a chemical structure identical to the hormones naturally produced in the human body. These hormones are derived from plant sources, typically soy or yam, and are then modified in the laboratory to be structurally identical to human hormones.

Having Trouble Finding Balance?
You’re Not Alone. And We Are Here to Help!
Meet with nurse practitioner, Sarah at your hormone therapy consult appointment to discuss your past medical history, current symptoms, get updated on any screening measures that may be needed before pelleting takes placed, and get your pre-pellet blood work done
Sarah, NP will review your results with you and utilize BIOTE’s personalized dosing tool to get you optimized with the right dose of bio-identical hormone therapy.
And then after about a week you should have increased energy levels, enhanced mood, cognitive function, and better sleep. Not to mention the bone protection and cardioprotectiveness that comes from hormone therapy!
What's the Pellet Process Like?
During an in-office visit, which only takes a few minutes, the insertion site is numbed, a small incision is made in the upper buttocks. Then the hormone pellet is inserted, and a small bandage is placed over the insertion site. It can take up to six months after the first insertion for a state of balance to be achieved and it may take a second pelleting to fully feel the effects.
Where was this years ago? My wife and I both feel like we did when we were dating years ago. We are so glad we both did the pellets.
Is hormone optimization for a certain age group?
Hormone optimization can be beneficial for individuals across different age groups, depending on their specific circumstances and hormone levels. While certain hormone-related conditions, such as menopause or andropause (age-related decline in testosterone in men), are more commonly associated with specific age ranges, hormone imbalances can occur at any age.
Estimated cost of BIOTE Pellets?
For males, lasting 5-6 months, $695. For females, lasting 3-4 months for females, $375.
