At Salamat Clinic, we employ a holistic, whole‑person model of care. Our comprehensive laboratory assessments routinely include evaluation for hormonal imbalances, recognizing that symptoms are often treated in isolation rather than traced to their underlying causes. Hormonal dysregulation is a common and frequently overlooked contributor to clinical presentation—particularly among postmenopausal women and men over 40. We collaborate with patients to optimize modifiable risk factors for hormonal imbalance, and when further intervention is appropriate, we offer evidence‑based hormone replacement therapy and adjunctive nutraceuticals through our partnership with Biote.

What Is the Goal of Hormone Optimization Therapy?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may offer relief for many common and debilitating symptoms that medical providers often overlook. Some of these symptoms include:

  • Exhaustion*

  • Stress*

  • Foggy thinking*

  • Weight gain*

  • Sleep disturbances*

  • And so much more*

Often, people with symptoms like these are suffering from hormonal imbalance. These ailments may be managed by getting to the root cause of these complex conditions and returning the patient to a state of hormonal balance. BHRT may be a simple method for correcting these complex issues through hormone optimization.*


What Is BHRT?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may help relieve the symptoms of hormonal imbalance by raising hormones to their optimal levels.

What Is Hormone Imbalance?

As we age, the production of hormones can be affected. Too much or too little of a hormone can have effects on the body, ranging from moderate to severe.*

What Is Hormone Optimization?

The Biote Method of specialized hormone pellet therapy uses custom-compounded pellets specifically designed to replace the hormones men and women lose over time.

What Is Pellet Therapy?

During pellet therapy, pellets are inserted subcutaneously into the body in a quick, simple, in-office procedure. These pellets will gradually be absorbed, dispersing hormones throughout the body.

Why Bioidentical Pellet Therapy?

Hormone replacement patients receive as few as two bioidentical hormone pellet insertions per year. The hormone is available when their bodies need it, and it’s a simple procedure done right in the provider’s office.

What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy?

Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) can come in oral, topical, and pellet forms. BHRT using pellets offers a consistent administration and may help address rollercoaster-like effects.

How Long Does a BHRT Pellet Take to Work?

Each hormone replacement therapy patient’s symptoms are unique; so is each patient’s path to hormone optimization. Most hormone therapy patients report some relief in as little as four weeks or sooner, but full optimization may take up to six months or more. The bioidentical hormone replacement therapy journey is customized to fit your patient’s specific needs.
