Bioidentical Hormones & EvexiPEL Pellet Therapy
Hormone therapy is the use of hormones to treat and restore hormone balance within the human body. Hormone imbalance can occur for a variety of reasons, but is most commonly associated with aging. Symptoms of hormone imbalance that are effectively treated with hormone replacement therapy include hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, anxiety, weight gain, muscle loss, joint pain, poor sleep, and more
The EvexiPEL Method is a form of hormone replacement therapy that uses pellets containing bio–identical hormones. These pellets are about the size of a grain of rice and are inserted just beneath the skin during a simple in–office procedure. Once inserted, the pellets release a consistent dose of hormones over the course of several months, providing sustained relief from symptoms of hormone imbalance

Synthetic vs Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
Topic
Bioidentical Hormones
Synthetic Hormones
How They're Made
Made from natural ingredients and designed to be an exact match to your body’s own hormones.
Man-made in a lab, not an exact match to your body’s hormones.
How the Body Responds
Your body recognizes them just like natural hormones, so they work smoothly.
The body doesn’t recognize them as well, which can cause problems.
Safety
Usually fewer side effects because they “fit” your hormone receptors perfectly.
More likely to cause side effects since the fit
isn’t exact.
Effectiveness
Helps with hormone imbalance, aging symptoms (like hot flashes or low energy), and may even support long-term health.
Can help with symptoms, but results aren’t
as reliable.
Research
More studies now show good outcomes and patient benefits.
Older studies (like the Women’s Health Initiative) raised concerns about risks, but those studies used only synthetic hormones.
Overall
Seen as a more natural, safer, and often more effective choice.
Less trusted today because of higher risks and side effects.
