This type of hormone replacement therapy has been found to be extremely effective. Unlike oral and other forms of hormonal therapy, which often produce fluctuating hormone levels, pellet therapy provides sustained hormone levels throughout the entire day, without any roller coaster effect. Because these hormone pellets are completely natural, you don’t suffer the drawbacks associated with synthetics.
