Bioidentical Hormone Replacement in Huntsville & Decatur, AL
Replace and Refresh Your Body's Hormones
Aging, as well as certain illnesses and medications, can cause the production and effectiveness of important hormones to wane. This results in decreased energy, brain fog, less zeal for life, depression, anxiety, weight gain, aching joints, weak muscles and bones, and overall less vitality. Hormone issues can also cause your sex life to become strained or near impossible, lowering your happiness with life even further.
Replenishing our bodies with the exact hormones that we need allows for dramatic improvements in health, vitality, libido and many other aspects of life.
At Living Healthy MD, we use the latest procedures and techniques for this natural, organic process, including the BioTE hormone pellet therapy. Call (256) 715-7483 to schedule an appointment today for hormone replacement in Huntsville or Decatur and optimize your body’s well-being.
What to Expect During HRT
Before
At your initial consultation, Dr. Roberts will be sure to address all of your questions, concerns, and reasons to proceed with the treatment will be discussed. Labs to test your hormone and thyroid levels will be ordered and discussed with you when they return.
A week before your procedure, you should refrain from taking any blood thinners, including ibuprofen or supplements that can thin the blood such as omega 3, vitamin E, ginseng or ginkgo biloba.
The Day Of
On the day of the treatment, we will start by answering any remaining questions you may have.
While under local anesthesia, you will receive the implantation of the hormone pellets in the subcutaneous fat of one of your buttocks.
This procedure is performed in office and only takes about 30 minutes.
After
After the procedure, you should avoid working out for several days. We recommend applying ice to the site of the procedure to reduce pain and bruising.
