Who do you think of first when you hear the word hormones?

For most of us, it is women—more specifically, women and PMS or women and menopause. Almost everyone knows that many women have problems with fluctuating hormones levels and that these problems can become
severe at certain times in their cycle and as they age and approach menopause. But men have hormones too. Testosterone levels are important for men to keep lean and muscular, full of vitality and energy, thinking clearly, happy and productive.

Do men commonly suffer from hormone imbalances?

Actually men do commonly suffer from hormonal imbances. We just haven't heard as much about male hormone balance. Current medical research now defines a male equivalent to menopause referred to as andropause. Men experience a more gradual decline in hormone levels. They lose approximately one percent of their testosterone and 2.5 percent of their DHEA per year beginning at age 30.

Return to the way you felt in your 30’s?

Men and women can feel healthy, vibrant and sexy throughout their entire lives. Neither sex needs to settle or adjust to a reality where they don’t feel well. Especially, when SottoPelle® is available to return us to the
hormonal balance, well-being and the physiological state of our 30’s! Wouldn’t that be a welcome relief?

What are the health benefits of SottoPelle® for women?

In addition to relief from the symptoms of hormone imbalance, bio-identical estrogen is the most important hormone to protect a woman against heart attack, stroke, osteoporosis, alzheimer's disease as well as uterine
and breast cancer. Synthetic estrogen taken orally does not offer these benefits. Women are also supposed to have certain levels of testosterone in their bodies. Testosterone gives a woman her mental clarity, libido, muscle tone and lean body mass. Without it, women often complain of mental confusion, weight gain and poor muscle growth even with regular exercise.

What are the health benefits of SottoPelle® for men?

Testosterone is one of the most important hormones a man possesses. Without it, fatigue, anxiety, depression,loss of mental clarity and libido occur. Furthermore a deficiency in testosterone may lead to prostate problems.

How are the hormones created?

The hormones are derived from a natural plant sources of soy and natural plant-based ingredients.  They are hand-compounded to be biologically identical to the human forms of estradiol and testosterone.  These pellets possess the exact hormonal structure of the human hormones.  Essentially, the body is given back what it can no longer produce.  this type of therapy has been documented and researched in medical journals since 1939 and has been widely used in Europe for decades.

Why is SottoPelle® superior to other types of therapy?

SottoPelle is the only hormone therapy that can provide:
Sustainable, even levels of hormone in the bloodstream.  With other types of therapy, there is a roller coaster affect when hormone levels fall in between dosages. Hormones released directly into the bloodstream.  This means the digestive system and the liver do not have to process the hormones.  This mimics how the body normally releases the hormones.
Bio-available homrones.  This means your body gets exactly what it needs when it needs it.  Because the hormone pellets are under the skin, increased blood circulation and increased body temperature (with increased stress or exercise) will release a higher level of hormones to meet the needs of your body.  The exact dosage your body needs.  The exact dosage of hormone replacement is calculated through your blood labwork.  This is not true of other therapies.
Completely natural.
Virtually no side effects
Hassle-free.
Lasts up to six months.
Works 24/7.
No pills, patches or creams (in most cases).

What’s the first step?

Call and schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Byers.  The process begins with analyzing your current hormone levels through blood work.  If you like, our staff can provide you with our Patient History Questionaire and our Lab Request Form so that you can have the labwork complete prior to your first visit.  Many our patients take our Lab Request Form to their primary care physician or to the lab that is in their insurance network/HMO.  Then, during your consultation, you and Dr. Byers  will review your current hormone levels, symptoms, lifestyle and the best course of treatment. 

How do I receive my treatment?

A hormone pellet could be the size of a grain of rice and is slipped painlessly under the skin, typically in the hip.  A mild, local anesthetic is used and the procedure takes less than five minutes.  Repeat treatments involve a brief visit with the doctor a few times a year.  That's it!
