Biote® Hormone Replacement Therapy
For many women and men, the journey to achieving optimal well-being can feel challenging, particularly when faced with symptoms like mood swings, hot flashes, weight gain, and low libido. At myEvergreen Med Spa, located in The Woodlands, Texas, we understand how hormonal imbalances can affect your quality of life. We’re proud to offer Biote Hormone Replacement, an innovative treatment designed to restore hormonal balance and help you feel like your best self.
What Is Biote?
Biote is a method of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) that uses subcutaneous pellet implantation to address hormone imbalance. Biote hormone pellet therapy is custom-compounded and designed to mimic your body’s natural hormones, offering a natural alternative to synthetic hormones. These tiny pellets, about the size of a grain of rice, are placed under the skin to deliver a consistent release of hormones, optimizing your levels over time.

How BHRT Works
The Biote method involves:
- Comprehensive Evaluation: Our Biote-certified provider will assess your hormone levels with thorough lab testing.
- Customized Treatment Plan: A personalized plan is created based on your unique needs, addressing imbalances in estrogen, thyroid, and more.
- Pellet Insertion: Biote pellets, custom-compounded for your body, are inserted under the skin for gradual hormone optimization.
- Supplementation: Supplements may be recommended to support your overall treatment plan.
The BHRT Pellet Insertion Procedure
The procedure is quick and minimally invasive:
- A small incision is made in a discreet area, typically the buttock or hip.
- The pellet, about the size of a grain of rice, is inserted under the skin.
- The incision is closed, and you can return to most daily activities.
Post-Treatment Recovery
Recovery from Biote hormone pellet therapy is simple. You may experience mild bruising or swelling at the insertion site, but side effects are generally minimal. Follow-up appointments ensure your hormone levels are optimized, and adjustments can be made to your treatment plan if needed.
Biote pellets typically last 3–6 months, depending on your body’s needs and absorption rate.
