HORMONEs

Each hormone pellet is slipped painlessly under the skin, in the gluteus.

A mild, local anesthetic is used and the procedure takes just a few minutes.

Once inserted, a steady, slow dose of natural hormone flows directly into the blood stream

whenever your body needs it. Repeat treatments involve a brief visit to our clinic office approximately every 3 months.

​

• We will see you in the office for an initial visit/physical and lab work (This is billed through your insurance) 

 

• Other tests required:

  • If you are female, we need a recent pap and mammogram.  You can get these through our office or your regular physician/practitioner.

  • If you are male, a prostate exam plus PSA level is required if you are over 50 years old.  You can get this through our office or your regular physician/practitioner.

​

• After all results have been received and reviewed at our office, the second office visit will be scheduled.
  At this visit, the pellets will be inserted. The cost of the pellets and insertion are not run through your insurance and are your responsibility. However, the actual visit will be billed to your insurance.
