Hormone Therapy
Hormones play a crucial role in many of the body's functions, including metabolism, mood, and energy levels.
However, as we age, our hormone levels decline, leading to a variety of symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, hot flashes, and decreased libido.
Persona offers hormone testing services using advanced diagnostics to measure a variety of hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and thyroid hormones. This can help identify any imbalances in your hormone levels, which may be contributing to your symptoms.
Once we've identified any imbalances, our team of healthcare professionals can work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan. One option we may recommend is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.
Unlike synthetic hormones, which are chemically altered to be similar to natural hormones, bioidentical hormones are derived from natural sources and are chemically identical to the hormones your body produces. This means that bioidentical hormones can be more easily absorbed and utilized by your body, leading to a more effective and efficient treatment.

At Persona Med Spa
Once inserted, the pellets slowly release hormones into the body over the course of several months. This can provide a steady and consistent dose of hormones, which may be more effective than other forms of hormone replacement therapy that require more frequent dosing.
The insertion of hormone pellets is a simple and relatively painless procedure that is performed in our office. After a local anesthetic is applied to the insertion site, a small incision is made, and the pellets are inserted using a special insertion tool. The incision is then closed with a small adhesive strip.
