How BioTE hormone therapy works to relieve symptoms

Bioidentical hormones replace what your body needs when your glands reduce or stop production of certain hormones. Bioidentical hormones are identical to the natural hormones your body produces. 

Dolce Vida Med Spa prefers BioTE hormone therapy, because it’s a gentle and effective hormone replacement system. BioTE hormones are created from plant sources to replicate your individual chemical makeup, and they’re delivered to your body by way of pellets.

BioTE pellets are customized for exactly what your body is lacking. Mr. Callahan inserts a tiny pellet underneath your skin during a quick outpatient procedure. The pellet then supplies a steady volume of the hormones you need over time. There’s no need to keep track of medications or use patches or creams. Your body eventually absorbs the pellet, so there’s no need for removal.
