What are the symptoms of low hormone levels?

Hormone depletion is different in women and men, but the symptoms aren’t pleasant in either case. In women with estrogen depletion, symptoms include:

• Hot flashes
• Mood swings
• Libido decrease
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Poor concentration
• Chronic fatigue
• Weight gain

Estrogen depletion can affect every part of your life, whether it happens during menopause or in your younger years. 

As men age, they experience many symptoms from plummeting testosterone levels, such as:

• Loss of muscle mass
• Reduced libido
• Hair loss
• Difficulty maintaining erections
• Decreased energy level
• Mood swings

Pro-Pell bioidentical hormone replacement helps both women and men with hormone depletion so that these symptoms disappear. 

How are bioidentical hormones different than other hormones?

Bioidentical hormones come from plant sources. They’re chemically identical to the hormones that your body makes, which means you get the exact benefit from bioidentical hormones that you’d get if you made those hormones on your own. 

Pro-Pell pellets are bioidentical hormones that duplicate your body’s hormones, in a dose personalized for you.

How does Pro-Pell therapy work?

Your Prima Health Clinic doctor uses your lab reports to determine your hormone levels so they can customize your Pro-Pell hormone replacement dosage. Pro-Pell hormone replacement therapy comes in pellets containing either the estradiol or testosterone that your body needs to return to full function. 

Your Prima Health Clinic doctor inserts the pellets through a tiny incision in your hip and then places a small piece of medical tape over it. The incision is so small that no sutures are needed. Your visit typically takes only 10-15 minutes, and there’s no downtime.

The pellets gradually release the hormones you need over time, keeping your hormone levels stable to help you feel your best.

When will I notice the effects of Pro-Pell therapy?

Some patients say they feel a difference within just a day or two, but it could take around 1-2 weeks to feel better. 

How often do I need Pro-Pell pellet insertion?

Pellet longevity varies by individual. On average, the Pro-Pell pellets last 3-5 months for women and 5-6 months for men. Most Prima Health Clinic patients enjoy lasting hormone balance with only a few pellet insertion appointments a year.
