Frequently Asked Questions 

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, also known as BHRT, uses hormones that mimic those naturally produced by your body to address hormonal imbalances or declining hormone levels. Our providers use extensive lab testing and clinical oversight to personalize your treatments and address your unique symptoms.

Traditional hormone therapy uses synthetic hormones, while BHRT uses processed hormones that are chemically identical to naturally occurring ones. This allows BHRT to work in harmony with your body’s natural functions, rather than overpowering them.

Hormone pellets are small rice-sized pellets placed under the skin. These pellets gradually release bioidentical hormones directly into the bloodstream, steadily balancing your hormone levels. They are virtually undetectable underneath the skin.

Hormone pellets typically last between four and six months, depending on your treatment. Your provider will develop an injection schedule based on your body’s function and pellet hormone absorption.

Yes. Our bioidentical hormone therapy is monitored by fully licensed medical professionals to ensure safety and efficacy every step of the way.

Your results timeline will depend on your individual health, any other medical conditions you may have, and your specific treatment plan. Most patients notice improvements within a few weeks, while others experience gradual changes over several months.

Yes. Ongoing testing is vital during BHRT. This helps our providers monitor your progress and ensure your hormone levels remain within optimal ranges.

IV therapy, also known as intravenous therapy, delivers fluids, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients directly into the bloodstream. This method bypasses the digestive system for maximum absorption and near-immediate results.

Most IV therapy sessions last between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the treatment. You’ll receive your treatment in a private room, supervised by one of our providers.

Treatment frequency will vary based on your goals and symptoms. Some patients use IV therapy as one-time treatments after recovering from an illness or travel, while others incorporate it into a broader wellness plan to treat chronic conditions.

No. IV therapy is intended to enhance your existing wellness routine, not replace your oral supplements. Discuss your current supplement regimen with your provider before beginning your IV therapy.

nutraceuticals are dietary supplements that use high-quality ingredients from food sources to boost your nutrition and address specific health concerns.

Your provider will select your supplements based on your symptoms, your medical history, and clinical research regarding each nutraceutical. We prioritize safety, quality, and efficacy when choosing supplements.
