Hormone Optimization (BioTE®) in Butte, MT

Many men and women suffer from unbalanced hormones. This can cause a variety of symptoms, like fatigue, weight gain, reduced libido, and more. At Flawless Salon and Medical Spa, we offer hormone optimization using BioTE® bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). This effective and simple process involves inserting a small hormone pellet under the skin that slowly releases customized BHRT dosages into your bloodstream. CEO Patience Peale and her team offer this to men and women at their Butte, MT office. If you're experiencing any of the below symptoms, we encourage you to contact our office as it could be a sign of a hormone imbalance.

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Fatigue
• Loss of sex drive
• Brain fog
• Irritability
• Weight gain

Hormone optimization can provide a number of benefits, including:

• Reduction of symptoms associated with menopause in women
• Increased energy and mental clarity
• Improved sleep
• Enhanced sex drive
• Reduced risk of osteoporosis
• Improved mood

Individuals who are experiencing hormonal imbalances that affect their overall well-being may be ideal candidates for hormone optimization. This advanced therapy is well-suited for men and women seeking relief from symptoms such as fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and reduced libido. BioTE hormone optimization is a potential solution for those who desire a natural approach to restoring hormonal equilibrium. By addressing underlying imbalances, individuals can potentially experience improved energy, mood stability, and overall vitality. Our team in Butte, MT can help determine if BioTE is the right path towards optimized hormonal health.

During your first appointment, we'll complete a physical exam and go over a number of health questions, including a list of medications, your symptoms, and more. We'll take a blood sample, as well. This will all help us identify which hormones are out of balance so we can create a custom treatment plan. From there, we'll insert a small rice-size BioTE pellet under your skin that will slowly release hormones into your bloodstream. To do this, we'll apply a local anesthetic and will make a small incision into your skin where the pellet will be inserted. Then, of course, we'll close the incision up. Every 3 – 6 months, we'll have you come in so we can insert a new pellet. While it may seem awkward to have a pellet in your skin, you should not feel it at all.

After hormone optimization, you may experience some initial mild soreness at the insertion site, which typically subsides within a few days. As your hormone levels begin to balance, you'll start noticing improvements in energy, mood, sleep quality, and overall well-being over the following weeks. Consistent follow-ups with our team at Flawless Salon and Medical Spa will help monitor your progress and adjust treatment as needed. The full benefits typically become more noticeable after a few weeks as your body adjusts to the optimized hormone levels.

Is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy safe?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy is generally considered safe for the majority of eligible patients. Those with a family or medical history of blood clots, stroke, or certain cancers may not be candidates for BHRT. During your consultation with Dr. Kinsner or a member of our team, we will go over your medical history to determine if hormone optimization is right for you.

How quickly does BHRT work?

Most patients can start to see noticeable results within about 3 – 4 weeks. Typically, optimal results can be seen in about 2 – 3 months.

Does bioidentical hormone replacement therapy have any side effects?

While their body adjusts to the hormone therapy, some patients may experience minor side effects that can include:

• Increased facial hair
• Fatigue
• Acne
• Mood swings
• Headaches
• Weight fluctuations

Typically, these effects subside as the body gets used to the new hormone levels and the benefits start to be seen.

Is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) covered by insurance?

Because it is such a new treatment and hasn't yet gained FDA approval, most insurance providers don't cover BHRT. Some providers will reimburse some costs if you pay out of pocket. You should always contact your insurance provider before beginning any treatment regimen.

At Flawless Salon and Medical Spa, we want you to live life to the fullest. Sometimes this can be difficult, though, when your hormones are out of balance. That is why CEO Patience Peale and her team offer hormone optimization with BioTE. This simple hormone therapy treatment can help men and women manage their hormones so they can reduce common symptoms, such as weight gain, fatigue, low sex drive, and much more.
