Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Pellets Now Available at Vessel Health

Vessel Health is pleased to introduce bioidentical hormone pellet therapy, a precision-based approach to hormone optimization designed for long‑lasting relief and consistent hormone levels. Ideal for individuals experiencing symptoms related to perimenopause, menopause, or age‑related hormonal decline, pellet therapy offers a seamless, maintenance‑free alternative to daily pills, creams, or patches.

How Pellet Therapy Works

Tiny, rice‑kernel–sized bioidentical hormone pellets—custom‑compounded to your specific hormonal profile—are inserted just beneath the skin during a simple in‑office procedure under local anesthesia. Once placed, the pellets dissolve gradually, releasing a steady and consistent dose of hormones over a 3–6 month period. This method avoids the peaks and troughs commonly associated with oral or topical hormone treatments.

Potential Benefits

Patients often report a wide range of improvements including relief from hot flashes, night sweats, low libido, fatigue, mood swings, and disrupted sleep. The steady hormone delivery may also support energy stability, improved mood, sexual function, bone density, and better overall well-being, often noticeable within a few weeks of implantation. In many cases, subsequent pellets are needed only 2–4 times per year.

Safety Considerations & Risks

It’s important to understand that these pellets are compounded products, not FDA‑approved medications. As such, they lack the same level of regulatory oversight and standardized dosing seen in FDA‑approved HRT forms. The minor outpatient procedure involves a small incision and local anesthesia, with standard aftercare to support healing. Because of potential variability in pellet strength and composition, there is a risk of misdosage or inconsistency in hormone release over time . For those with a history of breast cancer, blood clots, or estrogen-sensitive conditions, pellet therapy may not be appropriate.
