At La Nouvelle Medical Spa, one of our greatest goals is to provide you with healthy and safe choices that will enhance your health and well-being. With that in mind, we are pleased to present Biote Hormone Replacement Therapy for women and men.
As we age, our bodies naturally start to reduce the amount of hormones like testosterone and estrogen they produce. Hormones are essential for the best functioning of your body areas – such as your brain, heart, bones, reproductive organs, and more. When these hormones are out of balance, you may notice a shift in how you feel.
Pellet therapy uses hormones derived to replicate the body's normal hormonal levels. Patients have found that bio-identical hormone replacement therapy with pellets is extremely effective. Small pellets (the size of a pea), placed under the skin, consistently release small, physiologic doses of hormones that provide optimal therapy.
Unlike oral and transdermal forms of therapy — which produce "roller coaster" hormone levels, resulting in mood and energy fluctuations for the patient — Hormone Pellet Therapy is the only delivery method of hormone therapy that provides sustained hormone levels throughout the day for three to six months without any "roller coaster" effect.

"
I love it! Within 2 weeks, I stopped having hot flashes, I have much more energy, and I sleep much better!"
Tammy H.
"
I'm 45 and felt getting tired too fast. I noticed that I easily started losing focus and couldn't concentrate as I used it. This was before I learned about this hormone therapy. I didn't feel anything at the time of the procedure. Within 2 or 3 weeks, my energy levels drastically increased. I started running on the beach with my dog, I felt alert, full of energy and younger! The team was great!"
Michael E.
"
Truly recommend it! I tried hormone pills and they made me moody, I was constantly on a rollercoaster ride. I also wasn't interested in sex. Overall life was not so bright. After the hormone pellets, I feel great! No more rollercoasters and my sex life improved beautifully! "

Bioidentical hormones are derived from a natural plant source and professionally compounded to be biologically identical to the human form of estradiol and testosterone. The body is given what it can no longer produce.
Bioidentical hormone therapy can provide the following benefits:
Unlike other forms of hormone therapy, there are few side effects. Two percent of patients experience mild acne or facial hair, and less than one percent experience hair thinning. All of these mild side effects are easily treatable. Biote Medical’s hormone pellet therapy side effects are minimal when compared to other hormone delivery methods. That’s because BHRT pellet therapy delivers consistent amounts of hormones 24 hours a day, for 3 to 6 months.
Bioidentical absorbable estrogen is the most important hormone for a woman to protect her against heart attack, stroke, as well as osteoporosis and Alzheimer’s. Synthetic estrogen taken orally does not offer the universal benefits.
There is less chance of hair growth with bioidentical hormones than with synthetic treatments.
Pellets contain a natural plant source of estrogen and testosterone. A compounding pharmacist, using strict federal guidelines, compounds the estrogen and testosterone utilized in the pellets.
These pellets, which are smaller than a grain of rice, are placed in the fatty tissue underneath the skin and most closely mimic the actions of healthy ovaries and testicles with regards to hormone release into the bloodstream. The hormone pellet implantation procedure is easily performed in the office.
In studies, when compared to conventional hormone replacement therapy, pellets have been shown to be extremely effective for relief of menopausal symptoms, maintenance of bone density, restoration of sleep patterns, and improvement in sex drive, libido, sexual response and performance, relief of depression, anxiety, irritability, mood swings, and many others. Pellet implants have been used to treat migraine and menstrual headaches. It also helps with vaginal dryness, incontinence, urinary urgency and frequency, to name a few. Moreover, hundreds of studies show natural testosterone to be HIGHLY PREVENTATIVE against breast cancer, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s dementia, to name a few.
Testosterone levels begin to decline in men beginning in their early 30′s. Most men need to be tested around 45 years of age. Symptoms of testosterone deficiency in men include fatigue, lack of mental acuity, loss of libido, and difficulty achieving, or sustaining erection. It is never too late to benefit from hormone therapy.
Pellet Therapy achieves the sustained levels of testosterone that would be produced by normally functioning testicles. This form of therapy is the only kind that produces the natural level of hormone that men need. Because the testosterone used is totally natural, Pellet Therapy is ideal for men wanting the benefits of a natural hormone, without the drawbacks of a synthetic. Moreover, many studies show optimal testosterone levels in men , over 800, have preventative effects for many disease states such as: cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease, prostate cancer, osteoporosis, and more.
Typical oral and transdermal forms of therapy produce “roller coaster” blood levels of testosterone, which can result in mood and energy fluctuations for the patient. Roller coaster levels of hormones do not have the same long term benefits as steady state hormone in the bloodstream.

The ingredients in the Biote DIM SGS+ supplement are incredibly high-quality, pharmaceutical-grade ingredients. Our testosterone levels drop when we age, naturally increasing our estrogen levels. Too much estrogen can cause significant damage to our bodies. Studies have shown that people with high estrogen levels have a higher risk of increased weight gain, bloating, water retention, and other symptoms. Biote DIM hormone therapy supplement derived from broccoli and pomegranate stimulates a more efficient estrogen metabolism. Therefore, it helps optimize healthy estrogen levels, which are very important for both - men and women.
