Hormone Pellet Therapy

Long-Lasting Hormone Balance for Men and Women

Hormone therapy doesn’t have to mean daily pills or messy creams. Hormone pellet therapy offers a convenient, steady way to restore balance with results that last for months.

At PrecisionMD Wellness and Weight Loss, we provide hormone pellet therapy for both women and men in our Decatur and Madison clinics. Pellets deliver consistent hormone levels over time, helping reduce symptoms of imbalance without the ups and downs of other methods.

What Is Hormone Pellet Therapy?

Pellet therapy uses tiny implants, placed just under the skin (usually in the hip area), that release hormones steadily for several months. The procedure is quick, performed in-office, and most patients return to normal activity the same day.

Pellets are made from bioidentical hormones, meaning they are chemically identical to the ones your body naturally produces.

Benefits of Hormone Pellet Therapy

Patients often choose pellets because they offer:

Myths & Misconceptions About Hormone Pellets

Pellets are experimental or unsafe.

Pellets have been used in hormone therapy for decades. They are made from bioidentical hormones and, when prescribed and monitored appropriately, are a safe and effective option for many patients.

Pellets give you too much hormone at once.

Unlike injections, pellets release hormones gradually over several months, providing steady levels without the highs and lows.

Pellet therapy is only for women.

Not true. Pellets are commonly used in men with low testosterone and often preferred for their convenience and long-lasting results.

Once you start pellets, you can’t stop.

You can discontinue pellet therapy at any time. Hormone levels will return to baseline over a few months once pellets wear off. Your provider will help you decide if pellets are right for your long-term goals.

Pellet therapy always makes hormone levels too high.

This only happens when pellets are prescribed by inexperienced providers who don’t monitor labs or adjust dosing carefully. At PrecisionMD, we take a conservative, personalized approach. We monitor your hormone levels regularly, use the lowest effective dose, and adjust as needed — ensuring your treatment stays safe, balanced, and effective.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about our services, products, and policies. This section is designed to help you get the information you need—fast and easy.

How long do pellets last?

Most pellets release hormones steadily for 3–6 months, depending on your dose, metabolism, and activity level.

Is the procedure painful?

The area is numbed before insertion. Most patients describe it as quick and only mildly uncomfortable, similar to a simple skin procedure.

Are pellets safe?

Yes. Pellets are bioidentical and have been safely used in hormone therapy for decades. At PrecisionMD, we only prescribe and insert pellets when labs confirm they’re appropriate, and we monitor your hormone levels regularly to make sure your dose is both safe and effective.

Do women get testosterone pellets too?

Yes. Some women benefit from low-dose testosterone in addition to estrogen or progesterone. It can improve energy, mood, focus, and sexual health.

Do pellets replace injections or creams?

For many patients, yes. Pellets provide a more convenient alternative with steady, long-lasting results. However, not everyone is a candidate, and your provider will help you decide which option is best.

What hormones can be delivered through pellets?

Pellets can deliver bioidentical estrogen, or testosterone, depending on your needs.

How soon will I feel results?

Some patients notice improvements within weeks, while others may take a few months as hormone levels stabilize. Regular labs and follow-up visits help ensure your treatment continues to meet your needs.

Can pellets make my hormone levels too high?

Rarely — and only when therapy is not monitored correctly. At PrecisionMD, we use a conservative approach with careful lab monitoring and the lowest effective dosing. This ensures your hormone levels stay within a safe, healthy range while still relieving symptoms.

How much does pellet therapy cost?

At PrecisionMD, pellet therapy pricing is:

Women: $400 per insertion (includes required lab work)
Men: $700 per insertion (includes required lab work)

Most patients require pellet insertion every 3–6 months, making it a convenient and cost-effective long-term option compared to other therapies. While creams, gels, and injections may seem less expensive month-to-month, they add up over time and often require more frequent adjustments. Pellets provide steady results with fewer hassles and fewer visits — helping many patients save both time and money in the long run.
