The HRT Process
1
Consultation
Prior to undergoing hormone therapy, you’ll schedule a consultation with one of our experienced providers to review your medical history and determine if Biote hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is the appropriate choice for your needs.
2
Lab Work
After your consultation, a comprehensive panel of blood work will be ordered for you so that our providers can evaluate your hormone, thyroid, vitamin levels, and more. This information is then used in combination with your medical history and symptoms to calculate the proper dosage of hormones specifically for you.

Treatment
At your first appointment, your provider will review your results and discuss recommendations. We use plant-based Biote hormone pellets for a more balanced, personalized treatment. You’ll return every 3 to 6 months for a pellet insertion as needed.

“Bioidentical” means the hormones in the treatment are chemically identical to the ones naturally made by your body. Our Biote pellets come from plants and closely match your body’s natural hormone balance. This can lead to fewer side effects and better results compared to synthetic hormones.
Yes, you can still receive hormone replacement therapy (HRT) even if you’re currently using other forms of hormones. Our experienced providers can help you safely switch from your current HRT regimen to Biote.
The hormones are administered in the form of pellets, and can be inserted into the buttock, flank, or abdomen. Typically, the effects of each treatment last 3-4 months for female patients, and 4-6 months for male patients.
Determining if you’re a good candidate for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) involves a comprehensive evaluation of your medical history, current symptoms, hormone levels, and overall health. During your consultation, our providers will assess factors such as your age, sex, symptoms, existing medical conditions, and potential risks and benefits of treatment.
If you have a history of breast cancer or are at an increased risk for breast cancer, recommendation for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may vary. Breast cancer survivors may have been excluded from receiving HRT in the past. However, with our Biote HRT you may still be an eligible candidate for our therapy.
