The Institute for Progressive Medicine (IPM) has announced the clinic's Hormone Pellet Therapy. This therapy is used for both men and women who are seeking the benefits of traditional hormone replacement, but want to avoid many of the well-publicized health risks and hassles of traditional pills or creams. IPM's Estradiol and Testosterone Pellet Therapy is 100-percent identical to the hormones produced by the human body and derived from plant-based ingredients. The unique pellet-based delivery system allows natural hormones to be gradually released into the body over an extended period of time. With this method, there is no daily dosing and a significantly reduced risk of negative side-effects that accompany the use of synthetic or non-bioidentical formulations.

"At The Institute, we are always looking for safe, alternative, natural ways for patients to benefit from the latest medical breakthroughs," said Dr. Allan E. Sosin, M.D., founder and medical director of the Institute for Progressive Medicine. Hormone depletion is a leading factor in aging. "Pellet therapy is a great example of how we can offer patients the benefits of hormone replacement, including increased energy, mental clarity, and stronger bones, without some of the side-effects that synthetic pills or creams can cause."

IPM's procedure is effective for both women and men. Pellets are placed under the skin and absorbed slowly, providing a constant and consistent level of hormones into the blood stream - all without the daily peaks or valleys, found with traditional delivery methods. The pellet treatment lasts up to four months for women and six months for men. Hormone pellet therapy can increase bone density and sexual desire, hassle-free, with virtually no side-effects.

Estradiol, Estriol, Progesterone, Testosterone, DHEA, and Thyroid hormone, are a few of the hormones utilized at IPM.
