Are you feeling like your energy, mood, or intimacy isn’t what it used to be? Hormonal changes that happen naturally as you age can disrupt your body’s balance. These changes can make it harder to feel connected and confident in intimate relationships – but they don’t have to define your life.
Pellecome specializes in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), working with healthcare providers across the U.S. to treat men and women dealing with hormonal imbalances. BHRT uses bioidentical hormones that closely mimic the ones your body naturally produces, helping you more feel like yourself again – in daily life and in the bedroom.
Hormonal Imbalance in Men
Testosterone plays a huge role in men’s health – it’s the main hormone that controls libido, physical stamina, and emotional stability.Â
When testosterone levels drop as you age, you might notice a lower sex drive or have trouble getting erections. You’ll likely feel more tired or lack the stamina you used to have. Mood swings that cause irritability or frustration can also strain your emotional connection with your partner. All of these symptoms can add up to an unsatisfying sex life.
How BHRT Can Help
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy through BHRT may help restore sexual health for men in the following ways:
- Increased libido and improved sexual performance.1
- Greater energy and physical stamina for better intimacy.
- Stabilized mood so you can feel closer to your partner.2
Many men begin to notice improvements within a few weeks after starting BHRT pellet therapy. The full benefits may take a few months to appear as hormone levels stabilize. The gradual release of hormones provides consistent support for your body so you can regain balance over time.
Hormonal Imbalance in Women
Hormonal changes during menopause or with age can lead to a decrease in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels in women. These shifts often cause vaginal dryness, discomfort during intimacy, and a reduced sex drive.Â
Lower hormone levels can also drain your energy and cause mood changes, such as sadness or anxiety, that make emotional closeness harder.3
How BHRT Can Help
Women typically receive a combination of hormones – such as estrogen, progesterone, and sometimes testosterone – to address their unique needs. After starting BHRT treatment, you may notice these intimacy-related benefits:
- Improved libido and greater physical comfort during intimacy.4
- More energy and vitality.
- Stabilized mood so you can feel closer to your partner.
Similar to men, women may begin to feel the benefits of pellet therapy within weeks and the full effects after a few months.
