Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)
At Upgrade, we believe in empowering you to live a life full of energy, strength, and vitality. As we age, hormone levels naturally decline, leading to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, reduced muscle mass, mood swings, and decreased libido. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a powerful, science-backed solution that helps restore hormonal balance, allowing you to feel your best at any age.
What is HRT?
HRT involves replenishing your body’s natural hormones—such as testosterone, estrogen, and others—to optimal levels. By bringing your hormones back into balance, you can experience increased energy, improved mental clarity, enhanced mood, better sleep, and a revitalized sense of well-being.
At Upgrade, we offer flexible options to fit your lifestyle. Whether you prefer the convenience of at-home treatments or in-office care, we provide injectable, cream, troche and Biote pellet-based HRT to meet your needs.
HRT Options: At Home or In-Office
HRT Delivered Directly to Your Door
For those who prefer the ease and convenience of administering HRT in the comfort of their home, we offer injectable, cream, and troche hormone therapy shipped directly to your door. Our medical team will work with you to develop a personalized plan, and once approved, your hormones are delivered discreetly to your home. These methods allow you to take control of your treatment schedule while benefiting from our expert support and guidance every step of the way.
With at-home HRT, you enjoy flexibility without compromising results. This option is ideal for those with busy lifestyles or those who prefer the convenience of managing their treatment in their own space.
Biote Pellet HRT: Long-Lasting Convenience
For those looking for a “set it and forget it” approach, we offer Biote pellet-based HRT, administered in-office. Biote hormone pellets, made from bio-identical hormones, are inserted just under the skin in a quick, minimally invasive procedure. These pellets slowly release hormones over time, providing consistent levels for up to 3-6 months without the need for daily or weekly dosing.
Biote pellet therapy is ideal for individuals seeking a hassle-free, long-term solution that offers steady hormone levels and minimal maintenance. It’s a great option if you prefer not to deal with injections or daily medications, but still want the powerful benefits of HRT.
Benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy
Regardless of the method you choose, HRT offers numerous life-enhancing benefits, including:
- Increased Energy & Vitality: With optimized hormones, you’ll experience a boost in energy levels, making everyday activities easier and more enjoyable.
- Improved Mental Clarity: Say goodbye to brain fog and mental fatigue—HRT can improve focus, memory, and cognitive function.
- Enhanced Mood: Balanced hormones often lead to a more stable mood, reducing irritability, anxiety, and depression.
