Thyroid Hormone Therapy
LEARN MORE
Hormone pellet therapy is a proven and effective way to balance hormones.
As we age, the decline in critical hormones can lead to imbalances that affect our quality of life. Symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, low libido, mood swings, and poor sleep are common signs of age-related hormone decline, but they don’t have to define your life.
Ageless Expressions Hormone pellet therapy in Littleton and Golden, CO, is an advanced treatment that uses small, custom-compounded hormone pellets inserted just beneath the skin. These pellets steadily release hormones, mimicking the body’s natural hormone production. This method offers a consistent and stable hormone release, avoiding the “roller-coaster” effects often associated with other forms of hormone replacement therapy.
“Men and women are feeling younger and stronger and experiencing improved intimacy thanks to hormone pellet therapy!”
Who Can Benefit from Hormone Pellet Therapy?
Hormone Pellet Therapy is ideal for both men and women who are experiencing the symptoms of hormone imbalances due to aging, menopause, andropause, or other conditions. If you’re dealing with fatigue, low libido, mood swings, weight gain, or reduced mental clarity, this therapy may be an excellent option to restore your vitality.
The benefits of hormone pellet therapy include:
-
Consistent Hormone Release
Pellets release hormones steadily over months, ensuring balanced hormone levels without the fluctuations common with other forms of hormone replacement therapy.
-
Convenience and Compliance
Hormone pellets eliminate the need for daily pills, weekly injections, or messy creams. The procedure is simple, and the pellets last 3 to 6 months.
-
Natural and Bioidentical Hormones
The hormones used are chemically identical to those produced by the body, leading to better absorption and fewer side effects.
-
Improved Quality of Life
Many patients report increased energy, improved mood, better sleep, and enhanced overall well-being.
-
Reduced Risk of Hormone Fluctuations
With hormone pellets, you avoid the peaks and valleys that can lead to mood swings and other unwanted effects.
How Does Hormone Pellet Therapy Work?
Hormone Pellet Therapy uses tiny pellets, about the size of a grain of rice, made of bioidentical hormones such as testosterone or estradiol. These pellets are inserted just beneath the skin through a minimally invasive procedure, typically in the hip or buttocks area.
Once inserted, the pellets dissolve slowly, releasing hormones consistently over time to maintain hormone levels within the optimal range. This steady release helps eliminate the need for frequent dosing adjustments, providing long-lasting relief from symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hormone Replacement Therapy
Hormone pellets are made from bioidentical hormones, typically testosterone or estradiol, compounded into small, cylindrical shapes. The hormones are derived from natural sources and are identical to the hormones produced by your body, ensuring optimal compatibility and effectiveness.
Hormone pellets typically last 3 to 6 months, depending on factors such as activity level, metabolism, and how well the body absorbs the hormones. Most patients require pellet insertion 2 to 4 times a year.
The insertion procedure is quick and minimally invasive. A small incision is made in the skin under local anesthesia, and the pellets are inserted using a special applicator. Most patients report only mild discomfort, and there is no downtime needed after the procedure.
Side effects are generally rare and may include mild bruising or discomfort at the insertion site. Some patients may experience temporary hormonal fluctuations as the body adjusts to the new hormone levels. Our team carefully monitors each patient to ensure safe and effective treatment.
If you are experiencing symptoms of hormone imbalance, such as low energy, mood changes, weight gain, or decreased libido, you may be a good candidate for hormone pellet therapy. A comprehensive consultation with our experts can help determine if this therapy is the right option for you.
Hormone pellet therapy can help improve metabolism and energy levels, making it easier for some patients to lose weight. However, it is not primarily a weight loss treatment. It works best when combined with a healthy diet and exercise program.
At Ageless Expressions, we offer three primary options: pellets, injectables, and creams. We do not use hormone patches or capsules.
Injectable hormone therapy is typically administered on a weekly basis (or as prescribed). This option allows flexible adjustments to dosing and works well for patients who prefer not to use pellets.
Yes, creams are applied daily and can be effective for some patients. However, they require consistent application and carry a small risk of transference through skin contact.
