What Are Pellets?

Dr. Tutera discovered that subcutaneous pellets are the unique hormone replacement treatment that delivers the right kind of hormone (biologically identical) in the right amounts (based on testing and proper analysis of the results), using the right delivery system (pellets).

Subcutaneous pellets are the most convenient and effective hormone replacement available. They have been thoroughly documented and researched in medical journals since 1939. The method involves pellet-shaped (no larger than a grain of rice) bio-identical hormones painlessly inserted under the skin. Once inserted, a steady, low dose of natural hormones flows directly into the bloodstream whenever the body needs it. This gives the body the ability to control the release of the hormones just as it did when the ovaries and testicles were working normally


What Are Pellets Made From?

The pellets used with this therapy are made in an outsourcing facility which is FDA approved according to the highest industry standards, using the highest quality botanical ingredients available, starting with either yam or soy. They are specifically formulated to replicate human hormones. No horse urine. No fillers. Just pure, natural, biologically identical hormonesplain and simple.

  • Relief From Anxiety and Depression
  • Increased Mental Clarity, Focus, and Memory
  • Improved Energy, Exercise Tolerance, and Muscle Mass
  • Greater Potential for Getting The Body In Shape

How Long Will It Take For The Hormones To Start Working?

Most female patients report that they begin to experience improvement sometimes within a few days to a week of receiving their hormones. Testosterone may take up to two weeks to experience the benefits for men and women


How Often Is This Therapy Needed?

More great news … generally female patients will be seen three to four times a year and male patients twice a year, depending on symptoms and lab work.


Are There Any Side Effects Or Complications?

In women, transient breast tenderness lasting seven to ten days may occur with the first insertion, but rarely with repeat treatments. Acne and hair loss are rare occurrences from testosterone therapy. The growth of facial hair is also rare and occurs no more frequently than it happens in post menopausal women not on hormones. In men, the side effects are also rare, but may include decreased sperm count, decreased testicular mass and possible prostate enlargement. Minor bruising may occur. Extrusion of pellets is a possibility. Results may vary as not everyone is the same, and this may not work for you. Minor infections may occur due to clinical patient non compliance.


Why Hasn't The Bioidentical Hormone Therapy Method Been Suggested As An Option Before?

The majority of medical training is on synthetic hormones. Most likely, your healthcare professional was never trained in the use of bio-identical hormone pellets.
