What is BioTE?

Bioidentical hormone replacement is a process where compounded hormones are released into your system. These hormones are structurally identical to those produced by your body. Since these compounded hormones mimic your body’s own hormones at the molecular level, your system can recognize and utilize them well.

Common hormones used in BioTE therapy include testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone—which are all key players in maintaining mood, energy, metabolism, sexual function, and overall wellness.

Unlike traditional methods which employ pills or creams, bioidentical hormone therapy is delivered through tiny subdermal pellets. Treatment with BioTE pellets is available at our Kingwood clinic where our hormone replacement services have helped patients feel their best.

Hormone Imbalance: Symptoms and Effects

Symptoms of hormonal imbalance can often manifest in ways that are easy to dismiss or attribute to stress, aging, or lifestyle changes. Here are some of the most common signs and symptoms that can be treated with bioidentical hormone therapy:

  • Persistent fatigue
  • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight
  • Muscle loss and increased body fat
  • Mood swings, irritability, or feelings of depression
  • Hot flashes and vaginal dryness (in women)
  • Loss of breast fullness
  • Sexual dysfunction or reduced sexual desire
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Thinning hair or hair loss

If you’re experiencing any of these signs and feel like something just isn’t right, consult Dr. Naqvi at our Kingwood clinic about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy to see if it’s right for you.

Benefits of Treatment with Bioidentical Hormones

Since BioTE pellets are inserted just beneath the skin, they release a consistent, steady dose of hormones over time. This method helps eliminate the rollercoaster effect that can come with other delivery methods, ensuring more stable and effective results.

Treatment at our Kingwood clinic with BioTE pellets offers an effective solution to hormone imbalance—whether this imbalance is due to aging, stress, or other lifestyle and health factors. While the procedure is quick and minimally invasive, its benefits can be life-changing.

Increased Energy and Vitality

Many patients report feeling more energized and motivated throughout the day.

Better Body Composition

  • Helps increase lean muscle mass

Enhanced Mood and Mental Clarity

Balanced hormones can stabilize mood swings, reduce feelings of depression or irritability, and improve focus and mental sharpness.

Support for Age-Related Changes

BioTE pellets can also support bodily changes brought on by age. For example, it may reduce hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and other symptoms of menopause. In men, it may help address signs of andropause, such as reduced libido and muscle tone.

How to Decide Whether BioTE Is Right for You

If you’re experiencing symptoms of hormone imbalance and want a personalized, long-term solution, bioidentical hormone therapy may be a great fit for you.

During your hormone replacement consultation at our clinic, Dr. Naqvi will:

  • Review your current symptoms and overall health goals
  • Discuss your medical history and any prior hormone therapies
  • Perform a physical exam
  • Order a simple blood test to assess your hormone levels

Based on your results, Dr. Naqvi will tailor a BioTE hormone therapy plan that aligns with your unique needs. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again, this could be the first step toward better balance, more energy, and a renewed sense of well-being.

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy: What To Expect

During the BioTE procedure, Dr. Naqvi numbs the treatment area and makes a small incision near the upper buttocks. This is where a BioTE pellet is implanted just beneath the skin, following which the incision is closed with adhesive strips—no stitches needed. The procedure is nearly painless and requires no downtime, which means you can return to your normal routine shortly after bioidentical hormone therapy.

Over the following months, bioidentical hormones enter your bloodstream, helping to restore and maintain balance. When it’s time to renew the process, simply book your follow-up visit at our clinic for another hormone replacement procedure.

Dr. Naqvi will also monitor your hormone levels periodically and adjust treatment as needed to ensure that they remain within a healthy range.
