What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)?
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a medically supervised treatment that restores hormone balance using plant-based hormones that are chemically identical to those your body naturally produces.
Unlike synthetic hormones, bioidentical hormones match your body’s molecular structure. This allows for:
- More natural integration into your system
- Personalized dosing based on lab testing
- Consistent, steady hormone levels
- Reduced hormone fluctuations
At Renew MedSpa, we use the Biote® pellet method, which provides long-lasting, steady hormone delivery without the daily hassle of pills, creams, or injections.

How the Biote® Method Works
Hormones regulate nearly every major function in the body, including metabolism, sleep, mood, libido, and cognitive function. When hormone levels decline due to aging, perimenopause, menopause, or low testosterone, symptoms can impact quality of life.
The Biote® Method uses tiny pellets (about the size of a grain of rice) inserted just beneath the skin during a quick in-office procedure.
These pellets:
- Slowly dissolve over several months
- Release consistent hormone levels into the bloodstream
- Mimic the body’s natural hormone production
- Avoid the “spikes and crashes” of oral or topical therapy
- Require only 3–4 insertions per year (women) or 2–3 per year (men)
This steady release helps restore hormonal balance in a smooth, predictable way.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
What are the common symptoms of hormone imbalance?
Hormone imbalance can affect nearly every system in the body. Common symptoms include fatigue, weight gain, mood swings, anxiety, poor sleep, brain fog, low libido, hot flashes, night sweats, muscle loss, and decreased motivation. Because these symptoms often develop gradually, comprehensive hormone lab testing is the most accurate way to determine whether hormonal imbalance is contributing to how you feel.
How do I know if my symptoms are hormone-related?
Symptoms such as low energy, poor sleep, mood changes, weight gain, and decreased libido can have many causes. A personalized consultation and advanced hormone testing help determine whether bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may be appropriate for you.
At what age should I consider hormone replacement therapy?
There is no single “right” age to begin hormone replacement therapy. Many women consider BHRT during perimenopause or menopause, while men may explore treatment as testosterone levels naturally decline with age. The decision is based on symptoms and lab results — not age alone.
Who is not a candidate for hormone replacement therapy?
BHRT may not be appropriate for individuals with active hormone-sensitive cancers, certain liver conditions, unexplained vaginal bleeding, or clotting disorders. A thorough medical evaluation and lab testing are required before starting treatment.
Is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy safe?
When prescribed and monitored by trained medical providers, BHRT has demonstrated high patient continuation rates and low complication rates. At Renew MedSpa, your safety is prioritized through physician-guided treatment, evidence-based dosing protocols, comprehensive lab testing, and ongoing monitoring.
Does hormone replacement therapy cause cancer?
For most healthy patients, hormone replacement therapy does not cause cancer when appropriately prescribed and monitored. In 2024, the FDA removed the boxed warning on certain bioidentical hormone therapies after updated evidence showed risks were lower than previously believed. Individual risk depends on your personal and family medical history, which is why proper screening and follow-up care are essential.
What hormones are used in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?
BHRT may include estrogen, progesterone, and/or testosterone depending on your lab results, symptoms, and goals. Your treatment plan is fully customized to restore optimal hormone balance.
Is BHRT the same as testosterone therapy?
Testosterone therapy is one component of BHRT. While men often focus on testosterone optimization, women may also benefit from carefully balanced testosterone in combination with estrogen or progesterone when clinically appropriate.
What is the difference between BHRT and traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT)?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses plant-based hormones that are structurally identical to those your body naturally produces. Traditional HRT often uses synthetic hormones that may not match the body’s molecular structure as closely. Both can be effective when properly prescribed, but personalization and delivery method are key differences.
How does BHRT compare to traditional HRT in terms of effectiveness and convenience?
Both BHRT and traditional hormone replacement therapy can effectively relieve symptoms of hormone imbalance. Traditional HRT is typically delivered through daily pills, patches, creams, or gels, which may lead to fluctuating hormone levels due to absorption variability or missed doses.
BHRT with the Biote® pellet method provides a steady, consistent release of hormones for several months, eliminating daily dosing and helping reduce hormone “peaks and crashes.” The most effective option depends on your medical history, lifestyle, and treatment goals.
When will I notice results from BHRT?
Many patients begin noticing improvements within 1–2 weeks of starting bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Full benefits typically develop within 4–6 weeks as hormone levels stabilize.
How long do hormone pellets last?
With the Biote® pellet method:
• Women typically require pellet insertion every 3–4 months
• Men typically require reinsertion every 4–6 months
Duration varies based on metabolism, activity level, and overall health.
Is the hormone pellet insertion painful?
Pellet insertion is a quick, in-office procedure performed under local anesthesia. Most patients report minimal to no discomfort and return to normal activities shortly afterward.
Are there side effects of BHRT?
Some patients may experience temporary side effects during the adjustment phase, including mild acne, breast tenderness, mood changes, or minor swelling at the insertion site. Serious complications are rare when treatment is medically supervised and properly monitored.
Will bioidentical hormone therapy help with weight loss?
Hormone optimization can support metabolism, muscle maintenance, and energy levels, which may make weight management easier. However, sustainable weight loss also depends on nutrition, exercise, sleep, and lifestyle factors.
Will I gain weight on hormone therapy?
Hormone replacement therapy is not intended to cause weight gain. In many cases, restoring balanced hormone levels supports improved metabolism and body composition. Individual results vary based on lifestyle and overall health.
Can men benefit from hormone replacement therapy?
Yes. Testosterone optimization through BHRT can improve energy, libido, muscle tone, mood stability, cognitive clarity, and overall vitality in men with clinically low testosterone levels.
Can I stop hormone replacement therapy if I choose to?
Yes. Hormone therapy is not permanent. If you choose to discontinue treatment, your body will gradually return to its natural hormone production levels over time.
How much does bioidentical hormone replacement therapy cost?
The cost of BHRT varies depending on lab testing, individualized dosing, and frequency of pellet insertion. Because treatment is personalized, pricing is discussed during your consultation. Our team will review all costs upfront and help you understand your options.
Is BHRT covered by insurance?
Some laboratory testing may be eligible for coverage. Pellet therapy is often considered an elective wellness service. HSA/FSA may be used if your plan allows. Check with your insurance company.
