Hormones perform a very important role in the male body. Testosterone is the essential male sex hormone that contributes to energy levels, bone density, muscle mass, mood, sleep quality, cognitive function, and sex drive. As we age, the natural aging process causes hormone levels to decrease and become low or imbalanced. When this occurs, it can wreak havoc on the overall function and health of the male body. Although imbalances and low hormone levels are typically more common in older men, it is not uncommon for younger patients in their 30s to experience low testosterone levels. If left untreated, low hormone levels can negatively impact the overall quality of life. At Optimal Health and Wellness, we understand how important it is to properly diagnose and treat hormone imbalances to have you feeling and functioning at your best.

A drop in testosterone production may lead a variety of uncomfortable symptoms including:

• Brain fog

What is Bio-identical Hormone Pellet Therapy for Men?

Bio-identical hormones mimic the natural male sex hormone, testosterone. They come in the form of pellets that can be taken orally. This is different than alternative forms, which may involve injections, patches, or creams. Testosterone pellet therapy is more effective than alternative forms because the pellets provide a more consistent dosage while avoiding a “roller coaster effect” that can occur with alternative methods. Pellet therapy helps men achieve healthy testosterone levels and alleviate symptoms for improved overall health and well-being.
