Custom HRT - Hormone Pellets - Bioidentical Hormones

Custom remedies for HRT include pellets. Bioidentical hormones, estrogen and testosterone, may be placed under the skin to maintain a more stable level for HRT. Dr. McLaughlin has offered this option to his patients since 1981, and is often suggested if conventional therapies have been unable to relieve menopausal symptoms due to inadequate hormone levels. After numbing the skin, these saccharin-size pellets are placed into the subcutaneous fat layer for continued absorption. This allows Dr. McLaughlin to use lower doses of the drug (than orally), hopefully, with fewer potentially adverse effects.
