Bioidentical Hormone Restoration Therapy
Your Health and Life | Plant-derived formulations identical to your body
What is natural or bioidentical restoration therapy?
Bioidentical Hormone Restoration Therapy (BHRT), available for both men and women, is the art & science of naturally restoring balance to decrease the unpleasant symptoms and treating diseases caused by hormone imbalances. BHRT can help you reduce the symptoms of aging while improving your overall health and wellness.
BHRT (Bioidentical Hormone Restoration Therapy) has estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone that contain the same structure as the hormones produced naturally by the human body and (100%) identical.
Specialized testing is performed to pinpoint which specific hormones are out of balance. Based on the test results and symptoms, an individualized treatment regimen is determined utilizing bioidentical hormones.
This is not a 'one-size-fits-all’ approach to restoring balance. It is as individual as you are. For your individual needs, we offer two modalities of BHRT: Pellet Therapy and Traditional BHRT.
Pellet Bioidentical Hormone Restoration Therapy
PELLET BHRT more closely mimics the body’s way of delivering these hormones to the organs in need. Hence, it is the preferred method of Hormone Restoration Therapy.
A blood test is done to evaluate your hormone levels for Pellet Therapy. Based on the results, the bioidentical hormones, as small as a grain of rice, are painlessly slipped under the skin and provide continuous symptom relief for 4-6 months.
Natural BHRT Pellet Insertion is provided in our REPLENISH Centers in New Jersey.
In addition to being bioidentical, pellet therapy is the only hormone delivery system that is bio-available. As your requirement for hormones increases (as with exercise, stress, and illness) the pellet safely increases the amount of hormones to meet your body’s needs. So despite what life throws at you, you will have the mental, physical, and emotional capability to meet it head-on. Pellet Therapy will require re-insertion 2-3 times a year.
Benefits of Pellet Therapy Over All Other Methods of BHRT Delivery
- Adequate levels of each hormone are achieved in the blood utilizing very low dosages of estradiol (estrogen) and testosterone.
- Pellets release estrogen (estradiol) and testosterone directly into the bloodstream, thereby bypassing the liver.
- Pellets are the only form of hormone restoration therapy that can release more hormones when the body demands it.
- Pellets are made from pure crystallized, biologically identical estradiol (estrogen) and testosterone.
- Pellets provide continuous symptom relief for 4-6 months.
- Pellets are hassle-free, requiring insertions only 2-3 times a year.
- Some advantages include improved mental clarity, sleep, and overall health, regulated moods and menstrual bleeding, restored sexual function, increased libido and energy level, accelerated fat burning, and decreased anxiety and depression.

Testing is very important in the proper diagnosis and management of hormone imbalances. For example, many of the symptoms of estrogen excess overlap with progesterone deficiency. In order to pinpoint the specific imbalances, specialized testing is utilized. No two persons have the same hormone profile, diet, or lifestyle. Nor do they metabolize or excrete hormones the same. Therefore hormone levels must be measured and treatment individually customized.
Traditional BHRT involves first performing a Salivary Test. Once the imbalance is determined, the therapy is initiated. Pellet BHRT more closely mimics the body’s way of delivering hormones to the organs in need. A blood test is done to evaluate your hormones.
