This isn’t your grandmother’s hormone replacement therapy pellets

We’ve learned a lot about hormone pellet therapy over the last decade – and it’s shifting everything we once accepted as a “normal part of being a woman.”

Today, The North American Menopause Society, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, and The Endocrine Society all agree that hormone therapy can play an important role in managing peri-menopausal and post-menopausal symptoms.

If you’re struggling with symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, mood swings, and more, bioidentical hormone pellet therapy may be able to help you fight back and reclaim your right to feel normal again.

At AVIVA, we start with one single premise: It’s not all in your head

Bio-identical pellet hormone replacement therapy helps us prove it

How does Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy work?

It all starts with a single visit.

(And because we do in-office and virtual appointments, we can help you no matter what state you call home.)

We start by asking lots of questions

We never assume we have the answers about YOUR body. During your free consultation session, we simply listen to how you’re feeling, and then, we search for solutions.

We do a deep-dive lab analysis

We start by ordering a comprehensive lab panel to identify your optimal hormone levels, optimal thyroid function, and any recommended supplements and dietary suggestions.

Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy FAQs

How do I know if I need bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?

Try taking our Hormone Balance Quiz. If you answer YES to many of the questions, you may benefit from a bioidentical hormone therapy program or learning what and how to include specific supplements to your daily nutrition for optimal health.

How do I get started with bio-identical hormone replacement therapy?

When you take our Hormone Balance Quiz, our team will review your answers and give you a personalized assessment of how bio-identical hormones may/may not help you. You can also start by researching the different methods of bio-identical hormone therapy. Creams, patches, synthetic injections, prescription pills, and hormone pellets all work differently and can have different results. At AVIVA WO/MAN, we like using bio-identical hormone pellets. You can read about that here.

How do I find a provider for bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?

Read online reviews. Ask your primary doctor for a referral. Ask for a preliminary consultation. See if you can ask basic questions over the phone.

Remember, you can always find a new provider if the one you are seeing doesn’t ‘feel right’ with you.

The key to success is finding a provider you can establish a long-term relationship with. As you age, and as life changes, your provider will stay in tune with changes in your body and make adjustments along the way and as needed.

Lab FAQs

My labs came back as "normal." Now what?

First, “normal” results don’t mean that you are crazy or making up the fact that you aren’t feeling yourself.

Lab results in the normal range only mean that, on average, most individuals in your age range have a similar level of the reading on the test.

Bio-identical hormone therapy is looking for OPTIMAL over normal. A provider who aims to achieve optimal results will be looking for optimal hormone levels as well as, optimal thyroid function, supplements and dietary suggestions. Each of these components work together to help treat the whole individual.

What lab panels do you order?

For both men and women, will order a lipid panel, Vitamin B, Vitamin D-25 hydroxy, CMP CBC.

We will also check a thyroid panel to include a TSH, T4 total, T3 Free, and TPO.

Additionally, for women, we will order the estradiol, testosterone total, and FSH.

For men, we will order the estradiol, testosterone free & total, and a PSA for men ages between 55-69.

How long will my lab results take to come in?

It can take up to 10 days for our office to receive your lab results. After our office receives the results, we call you to set up a hormone evaluation visit (either in-person or virtually).

What can I expect once my labs have been received?

We’ll schedule a lab evaluation visit and spend anywhere from 45-55 minutes reviewing your results.

You will learn about what your present baseline is, areas that can be improved, and receive suggestions on a hormone therapy program, thyroid support, and supplements and dietary options all geared toward optimal health and wellbeing specific to your body and needs.

If you would like to proceed with therapy suggestions, we are happy to proceed with the recommended treatment or help you connect with another provider who can help you implement a plan that works best for you.
