Men need hormones, too
The phrase “Hormone Replacement Therapy” generally brings to mind hormone replacement for menopausal women. Actually, it is much more than that since hormone replacement therapy for men is very important. Men experience a gradual decline in hormones, especially testosterone as they age. Beginning in the early to mid 30’s, his body manufactures less and less testosterone. The average male will lose approximately 1 – 2 percent per year until sometime between age 40 and 55. At this point, his testosterone levels drop dramatically and signal the onset of andropause- the medical term for the male identical of menopause.
When this happens, a man often finds himself with decreased or absent libido, weight gain, loss of muscle mass, fatigue and a depressed, irritable mood. Most men will attribute this to growing older and do nothing to help themselves feel better.
In recent years, hormone therapy for men has received more attention and interest by the public. Until recently, treatment options have been limited and without noticeable results in many cases. Many of these options were expensive, required weekly trips to the medical office or uncomfortable weekly injections with the help of Advanced Clinics.

About Pellet Hormonal Therapy
Pellet Hormonal Therapy is a unique hormone replacement method that delivers biologically identical testosterone, based on laboratory blood testing & proper analysis of the results, using a subcutaneous pellet delivery system which mimics the body’s natural delivery mechanism.
What is the procedure like?
Each hormone pellet is placed painlessly under the skin, in the soft fatty tissue of the hip. A mild local anesthetic is used and the procedure takes less than five minutes.

Repeat treatments involve a brief visit to the clinic a few times per year. That’s it!
