How long do BioTE pellets last in men?

Men can expect BioTe Pellets to wear off after 4-5 months.

What Are BioTe Pellets?

BioTe Pellets are the primary component of Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy. These cylindrical supplements are inserted under the skin to deliver regular doses of hormones as needed. The pellets are designed to release precise doses of hormones to maintain a daily balance over a longer period of time.

Many people prefer BioTe Pellets over oral supplements, as they do not require you to remember to take your hormones daily. Moreover, you don’t have to worry about taking too much or too little. Once they’ve been inserted, the BioTe Pellets take care of the rest!

What are the signs of hormone deficiency.

What To Do After Pellet Insertion?

Once we have inserted the pellet, you won’t have much upkeep! We will place a small bandage over the spot, and you can take it off after 48 hours. If you need to, you can wear another Band-Aid for any drainage. For the first three days, you should avoid hot tubs, pools, or baths. Additionally, you should not participate in strenuous activity for the next 3 – 4 days. Finally, you may experience some redness, bruising, and tenderness near the treatment area. These side effects will subside on their own in about 4 – 14 days. In rare cases, patients may experience an infection. If that’s the case, please call Rejuvne8 Medical As soon As Possible because you may need an antibiotic.

How Are Hormone Imbalances Diagnosed?

For both men and women, we will run a series of diagnostic testing during a consultation. Usually, the testing includes:

  • Discussing medical history, concerns, or family medical history
  • Evaluating blood work

When designing your treatment plan and deciding on the dosage amount for your pellet, Medical will consider all of your tests. After selecting the best dosage, we can place the pellet. To do this, team Rejuven8 inserts the specialized pellet underneath the skin near the hip or buttocks. Patients will need to replace their HRT pellets every 4 – 6 months.
