Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women
Hormone changes are a natural part of life for women. During the childbearing years, female hormones fluctuate monthly. These fluctuations help prepare the body for pregnancy or result in menstruation if pregnancy doesn’t occur. After the childbearing years, a woman’s body enters a period of intense hormone changes triggered by menopause. During menopause, the production of estrogen and progesterone in the ovaries plummets, which leads to a variety of unpleasant symptoms, such as hot flashes, breast tenderness, night sweats, and vaginal dryness. Many women use hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to reduce these symptoms. BioTE hormone replacement therapy for women is a bioidentical form of treatment. It may be more accepted by the body when compared to synthetic hormones.
Boulder Valley Laser and Cosmetic offers BioTE estrogen, progesterone, and/or testosterone therapy, depending on your needs. We recommend this treatment to women experiencing hormone imbalance symptoms. This treatment may not be suitable for everyone, which is why it’s important to receive a hormone replacement therapy consultation. During your consultation, we can review your health needs and goals to determine whether you’re a good candidate. Call us at 970-572-9674 to schedule your appointment.

BioTE Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women: How It Works
BioTE hormone pellet therapy for women provides the body with bioidentical hormones; these hormones come from natural sources and are biologically identical to hormones made in the human body. It is thought that bioidentical hormones may cause fewer side effects. This is because the body is more likely to recognize and accept bioidentical hormones than synthetic hormones.
We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach to hormone replacement because we understand that every woman is different, with varying hormonal needs. Therefore, we create custom-compounded hormones that are specific to each person using comprehensive blood panels to determine which hormones and concentrations to include in each pellet. This is a highly customized and effective approach to female hormone optimization.
The BioTE hormone replacement therapy process for women is similar to that for men. During BioTE hormone pellet therapy for women, we insert tiny hormone pellets just under the skin. The most common insertion site is in the upper buttocks. To insert the pellets, we make a tiny incision. Afterwards, we bandage the incision site so it can heal without disruption. Once inserted, the pellets slowly release the hormones your body needs to function optimally.
