How Hormone Replacement Therapy in San Antonio Works
- We offer bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), a personalized approach to hormone therapy that utilizes processed hormones derived from natural sources, such as plants. Our experienced healthcare providers conduct a thorough hormone panel assessment to understand your unique hormonal requirements. Based on the results, a customized treatment plan is crafted to address your specific needs.
- Once your ideal hormone levels have been determined, our providers will administer bio-identical hormone pellets to optimize your hormone levels.
- These pellets gradually release hormones into your bloodstream, supporting your body’s natural hormone production for up to six months following treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hormone Replacement Therapy
Testosterone hormone pellets come from a natural plant source and are manufactured and tested for potency, sterility, and endotoxins to ensure the highest quality hormone optimization. Pellets used for male are custom-compounded with bio-identical testosterone, and then inserted into the fatty tissue underneath the skin in order to release those hormones into the bloodstream.
The entire Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy process is strictly monitored under federal guidelines, and the testosterone used has earned FDA approval. This treatment has provided safe and effective results for patients across the San Antonio area.
You should start to experience results within 2 to 3 weeks after your treatment.
BHRT stands for bio-identical hormone replacement therapy. This therapy uses hormones that come from natural sources, like plants, and are chemically identical to those produced by the body to supplement your hormone levels and restore balance where needed. Traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT) uses synthetic hormones. We use BHRT in San Antonio because it more closely matches our natural hormones and leads to more effective results.
The pellet process is a minimally invasive procedure that involves inserting pellets below the skin in the hip or buttock region. We begin by applying a numbing agent at the incision location to minimize any pain. Once the pellets are placed, we close the incision with a small bandage. You can expect the process to last 10 to 15 minutes.
As the pellets dissolve, they gradually release hormones into your bloodstream. We recommend pellets for your BHRT because they are long-lasting and require less maintenance than taking a daily oral pill or administering a weekly injectable.
Men typically require 6 to 10 pellets every 4 to 6 months. However, we determine the exact amount you need based on the results of your hormone panel and the concerns discussed during your consultation.
The pellet process usually requires that men avoid strenuous activity for 48 hours after each treatment.
Men are able to stay on BHRT for as long as they like. Many patients experience remarkable improvements in their wellness and choose to remain on BHRT for the continued benefits. However, certain medical conditions or medications may interfere with the treatment. Talk with your provider about how BHRT can fit into your lifestyle for the long term to learn more about what’s right for your needs.
Testosterone is a hormone that is most often associated with sex drive. As men age, they experience a decrease in testosterone levels. In fact, after the age of 30, their T levels drop by an average of 1% each year. This is often called andropause.
Low testosterone levels not only affect men’s libido and cause erectile dysfunction (the inability to achieve and maintain an erection), but can also result in fatigue, decreased energy, loss of muscle mass, and even depression, which further diminishes their desire for sex. Lower testosterone levels may also affect a man’s appearance. The combination of all these physical and mental effects often results in low self-esteem, which further impacts men’s libidos.
With BHRT, testosterone levels are restored, leading to improvements in erectile dysfunction, mood, energy, and overall vitality. These multiple benefits can boost self-confidence and heighten libido.
Additionally, when testosterone levels increase, this can reduce feelings of depression, further making men feel more energetic, motivated, and confident. Altogether, the effects of BHRT can restore one’s overall well-being, improving the physical, mental, and sexual aspects of life for a variety of benefits.
Testosterone plays a key role in much more than your sexual wellness, it also maintains facial and body hair, weight, bone density, and muscle mass. As testosterone levels decline with age, men notice changes in their physical appearance such as increased body fat, reduced strength, and changes in their hair and skin. BHRT in San Antonio, restores your testosterone levels, and leads to noticeable improvements in your weight, strength, and physical appearance.
