Make room for the conversation
Bring the symptoms that affect your day, even if they are difficult to describe. Tell us when they began, how your periods have changed, what you have tried and what you hope to improve. We consider your health history, medications and priorities before discussing treatment.
What does bioidentical mean?
Bioidentical describes hormones with the same chemical structure as hormones the body makes. Both FDA-approved and compounded products can fit that description. The word alone does not establish that a product is safer or more effective.
Where hormone pellets fit
Vitalis offers evaluation for hormone pellet therapy. Pellets are placed beneath the skin during an office procedure and release hormone over time. Convenience is one consideration; the ability to adjust treatment, your medical history and alternatives matter too. Compounded pellets are not FDA-approved. Ask which formulation is proposed and why it fits your situation.
Choose care around your symptoms
Menopause hormone therapy can help with hot flashes and vaginal symptoms. Options may include systemic or local treatment and nonhormonal approaches. People with a uterus generally need endometrial protection with systemic estrogen. Your clinician explains the benefits and risks of the specific plan, rather than assuming every symptom calls for pellets.
Your visit at Vitalis
Start with our hormone assessment or request a consultation. Bring your medication list, relevant laboratory reports and a brief symptom history. Your provider decides whether testing would be useful, discusses options and explains aftercare and follow-up before a procedure is scheduled.
Costs and follow-up, explained
Call to ask about current consultation and pellet pricing. Ask whether the estimate includes laboratory testing, insertion and follow-up visits. Coverage depends on the service and plan. A consultation does not obligate you to choose a procedure.
