How Star Wellness MD Restores Hormonal Balance Naturally
Feeling Fatigued, Moody, or Off-Balance? Your Hormones May Be the Missing Piece
Hormones control everything from your energy and sleep to your mood, libido, and metabolism. As we age—or experience transitions like menopause or andropause—those hormones can decline or fall out of sync. The result? You may feel tired, gain weight more easily, or notice changes in focus, mood, or sex drive.
At Star Wellness MD, we specialize in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) and pellet therapy to help men and women rebalance naturally and feel their best again.
What Is Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a medically supervised treatment that restores your body’s natural hormone levels using precise, personalized dosing.
Types of Hormone Replacement Therapy
| Method | Description | Pros | Cons |
| Oral Pills | Taken daily | Convenient | Peaks/troughs, liver metabolism |
| Topical Gels & Creams | Applied to skin | Bypass digestion | Absorption variability |
| Injections | Given weekly or biweekly | Fast-acting | Frequent visits |
| Pellets (BHRT) | Inserted under the skin | Steady release, most convenient | Minor procedure required |
What Is Pellet Therapy?
Pellet therapy is a form of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy that uses tiny, custom-compounded pellets—about the size of a grain of rice—inserted just beneath the skin. These pellets slowly and steadily release hormones over 3–6 months.
The Pellet Therapy Process
• Consultation & Lab Testing: We start with an in-depth consultation and lab analysis to determine your unique hormone profile.
• Customized Dosing: Our compounding pharmacy prepares your exact hormone dose based on your labs and symptoms.
• Insertion Procedure: A 10-minute in-office procedure places pellets under the skin using local anesthetic.
• Steady Release: Over several months, pellets dissolve naturally, maintaining steady hormone levels.
• Follow-Up: Routine follow-ups and labs ensure optimal balance and dosing.
Top Benefits of Pellet Hormone Therapy
• Consistent hormone levels with fewer fluctuations
• No daily pills, creams, or weekly injections
• Direct bloodstream absorption for better bioavailability
• Improved libido, mood, and focus
• Plant-based bioidentical hormones that mimic your body’s natural chemistry
Who Is a Good Candidate for Pellet Therapy?
• Low energy or fatigue
• Brain fog or poor concentration
• Weight gain despite healthy habits
• Mood swings or irritability
• Low libido or sexual dysfunction
• Sleep disturbances or hot flashes
Possible Side Effects & Safety Considerations
While generally well-tolerated, some people may experience temporary soreness, bruising, or mild hormonal adjustment symptoms. Because dosing is individualized, it’s important to work with an experienced provider for optimal results.
