introducing biote

 Biote has translated more than 80 years of scientific insight into the foundation of the Biote Method, which identifies and aims to help with the earliest signs of aging.

• We at Homegrown Healthcare in Lake Jackson have chosen to partner with Biote because we believe our patients deserve the best. The Biote Method is backed by deep experience and scientific research. 
• The Biote Method centers around the idea of personalized, precision care. The way your body works, the symptoms you experience, and how your body responds to Biote HRT are all unique – your Biote Certified Provider in Lake Jackson, TX will develop an individualized natural hormone therapy treatment plan for you based on your body’s specific needs. 

•  As we age, our bodies naturally start to reduce the amount of hormones like testosterone and estrogen they produce. Hormones such as these are incredibly important to how many areas of your body function – such as your brain, heart, bones, reproductive organs, and more. 
• When these hormones are out of balance, people can experience a number of different symptoms. 
• Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is a method of restoring the balance of your hormones and aiming to relieve these symptoms, using compounded hormones that are identical in structure to those your body naturally produces. That way, your body recognizes and uses these replacement hormones in exactly the same way it would hormones it produces naturally. 

•  The Biote Method of hormone optimization is the result of condensing over 80 years of scientific research into a program that may help with the earliest signs of aging.
• Biote HRT uses pellets, which are about the size of a grain of rice, for hormone optimization. Your  provider at Homegrown Healthcare inserts these tiny pellets under the skin during a simple, in-office procedure. 
• The pellets will then dissolve slowly over time – they only need to be re-administered approximately every 3-4 months in women, and every 5-8 months in men.
• As the pellets dissolve, they release a steady stream of hormones into your bloodstream, which your body will then use as it needs. Over time, the pellets will be completely absorbed, leaving nothing behind. 

• Hormonal imbalances occur when there is too much or too little of a hormone in the bloodstream.
• Hormones are important for regulating most major bodily processes. Because of their essential role in the body, even the smallest hormonal imbalance can cause side effects throughout the body.
