The Importance of Hormonal Balance

What Is Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormones play an essential role in almost every function of the human body—weight regulation, energy levels, mood, and sexual health, to name a few. When your hormones are out of balance, you may find yourself experiencing unexplained weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, and a host of other symptoms that diminish your quality of life.

At New Hope Surgical, we recognize that hormonal imbalances can be a significant barrier to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight, especially for individuals going through perimenopause, menopause, or with low testosterone levels. That’s why we’re proud to offer the cutting-edge hormone pellet therapy designed to restore balance, revitalize your metabolism, and help you reclaim your mental acuity and overall wellness.

This bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) delivered via small pellets inserted just beneath the skin. These pellets are formulated to mimic the body’s natural hormones—such as testosterone or estrogen—allowing you to achieve stable hormone levels without the highs and lows often associated with creams, gels, and oral medications.

Unlike traditional hormone therapy options, it releases hormones consistently over time, offering numerous benefits:

  1. Steady Hormone Levels: No more roller-coaster side effects.
  2. Convenient Treatment Intervals: Pellets typically last 3-6 months, depending on your metabolism and individual needs.
  3. Customized Dosing: Each pellet is personalized to your hormone profile, ensuring precise treatment.

How BHRT Supports Weight Loss

One of the most challenging aspects of managing weight is dealing with hormonal fluctuations that can slow metabolism, increase fat storage, and trigger cravings. When your hormones are balanced, you’re more likely to experience:
Improved Metabolism: Balanced levels of hormones like testosterone and estrogen can significantly enhance your body’s ability to burn fat rather than store it.
Reduced Cravings: When you aren’t dealing with hormonal spikes and crashes, you’re less likely to succumb to stress or emotional eating.

Greater Motivation to Exercise: Restored energy and improved mood make it easier to stay active and commit to a consistent workout routine.

BHRT isn’t just beneficial for weight management—it can also help combat chronic fatigue, mood swings, and other complaints related to hormone imbalance. By addressing the root cause, you unlock a healthier, more energized version of yourself.

Mental Clarity and Focus

Many patients seek BHRT not just for weight loss, but also for relief from brain fog, difficulty concentrating, or lingering fatigue. Hormonal imbalances can contribute to cognitive disruptions, affecting your performance at work, relationships, and overall quality of life. 

Increase Mental Sharpness: Balanced testosterone, estrogen, and other hormones can improve memory and attention span.

Boost Energy and Motivation: Balanced hormones often translate to better energy throughout the day, reducing the reliance on caffeine or other stimulants.

Improve Mood: If you’ve been feeling anxious or depressed due to fluctuating hormones, it’s stable release system can help stabilize mood swings.

BHRT Pellets vs. Other Hormone Therapies

While multiple forms of hormone replacement therapy exist—patches, pills, injections, and creams— pellet therapy stands out for its convenience, consistency, and reduced risk of user error. For instance, forgetting to apply a cream or missing a pill can lead to inconsistent hormone levels. With pellets, your body receives a steady, measured dose, eliminating the day-to-day hassle and guesswork.

Additionally, we use bioidentical hormones, which are chemically identical to the hormones naturally produced in your body. Many patients prefer bioidentical hormones due to their potential for fewer side effects and better overall compatibility with the human body.

Step-by-Step Process

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation: Your journey begins with a full assessment, including lab tests to determine your current hormone levels. We'll also review your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle habits.
  2. Personalized Plan: Our hormone therapy specialists use the lab results to design a pellet formulation customized to your unique hormonal needs.
  3. Simple Pellet Insertion: During a quick, in-office procedure, tiny pellets are inserted under the skin, typically in the hip or buttock area. Most patients describe the process as virtually painless.
  4. Ongoing Monitoring: After the insertion, our team tracks your symptoms and hormone levels to ensure optimal results. Follow-up appointments and blood tests help us fine-tune your dosage if necessary.
  5. Maintenance and Support: Pellets usually last several months, so you won't need daily applications or weekly injections. Our dedicated staff remains available for questions, concerns, and any adjustments that may be needed over time.

Yes. BHRT is effective for individuals of all genders who experience hormone deficiencies or imbalances. Pellet dosages are customized based on each patient's lab results and health profile.

Many people report improvements in energy, mood, and focus within a few weeks. Weight changes may take longer to become evident, often requiring consistent follow-ups, dietary adjustments, and exercise.
