What is BIOTE?
As people age, their hormone levels naturally begin to decline. Women’s estrogen levels drop even before menopause begins, while men’s testosterone levels decrease as they reach andropause or Low T. This hormonal change is natural and unavoidable, but it also comes with a cost.
Suddenly, the hormones that were supporting the brain, heart, bones, and other organs can dip below normal levels. This has huge implications for both physical and mental health.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a method of rebalancing your hormone levels with plant-based hormone replacements crafted to replicate the hormones your body naturally produces.
What happens when hormone levels are off?
Hormones are essential for regulating many common functions in our bodies, and even the smallest imbalance in hormone levels can have significant effects on mood, behavior, and physical health. These negative effects of hormone imbalance are most often seen in women as they approach menopause and men as they approach andropause or Low T (low testosterone).

How can BIOTE help?
Biote aims to relieve symptoms caused by low hormone levels by rebalancing your hormones and restoring healthy levels. The Biote method uses tiny, plant-based pellets (identical to your body’s naturally produced hormones) to rebalance your body’s hormone levels. As the pellets dissolve, they release a steady stream of hormones into your bloodstream which your body will then use as it needs.*
What can I expect?
Biote is a miminally invasive treatment that takes less than 20-minutes and is performed by one of our doctors in office.
When you come in for Biote, a doctor will numb a portion of your skin before creating a tiny incision to be able to place the small Biote pellet (roughly the size of a grain of rice) under that area.
You may feel some discomfort in the area where the pellet was place, and we recommend avoiding strenuous activity for a few days after the insertion. Most patients are able to resume normal daily acitivities after those short few days.
Most patients will feel the greatest benefit from treatment a few weeks after the pellet is inserted. From the time it’s placed, the hormone pellet will continue to release hormones over the next ~3-5 months depending on the patient.
