What is Hormone Imbalance?
Hormone imbalance refers to the disruptions in the body’s hormonal levels, affecting its ability to regulate essential functions. Symptoms vary widely but may include fatigue, weight changes, mood swings, alterations to women’s monthly cycles, and changes in libido. Treatment aims to restore hormonal equilibrium for optimal health.
Causes of Hormone Imbalance include:
- Stress
- Medical conditions
- Medications
- Lifestyle factors
Hormone Replacement Therapy
As we age, hormone levels without our body naturally deplete over time. This can lead to a variety of symptoms related to menopause, mental clarity, libido, and general fatigue. However, here at Transformed we can help you feel like someone you recognize again. At Transformed Med Spa of Frederick, we offer BioTe® Hormone Replacement Therapy to help patients achieve hormone balance and restore their health. Each person is different, and their needs change over time. Our medical providers design individualized treatment plans to replace hormones according to the hormone levels indicated in specific bloodwork, along with the client’s symptoms. Using our subcutaneous pellet approach to bioidentical hormone therapy, some patients report feeling symptom relief in as little as seven to 10 days, but complete symptom relief may take up to six months.

The most commonly used hormones for BHRT are testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone.
Bloodwork is required before the first treatment and 4-6 weeks after your initial treatment to determine your dosing, then annually thereafter.
Bio-identical hormone pellets last 3-4 months for women and 4-6 months for men. The absorption rate is based on cardiac output and can vary by individual.
The small hormone pellets are typically placed in the hip under a mild, local anesthetic. The procedure takes less than five minutes.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy helps alleviate the symptoms most commonly associated with aging such as fatigue, decreased libido, insomnia, hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, decreased mental clarity, loss of muscle mass, joint pain, and changes in sexual function.
Side effects for women and men may occur. In women, transient breast tenderness lasting 7-10 days may occur with the first insertion. There may be some hair growth or acne in moderation from occurrences from testosterone therapy. Men’s side effects may include decreased sperm count, decreased testicular mass and possible prostate enlargement. These side effects occur much more frequently with the use of synthetic hormone replacement therapy.
DIM SGS+ is a required supplement for all Biote patients. It is an ideal combination of Diindolylmethane(DIM), sulforaphane(SGS), and pomegranate extract. These ingredients assist the body by maintaining a healthy testosterone and estrogen metabolism.
This is an easy transition. Your certified treatment specialist will customize a treatment plan to convert from your current method of hormone replacement to the bio-identical pellet therapy.
Breast cancer survivors and/or those who have a history of breast cancer in their family may still be a candidate for hormone replacement therapy. Your provider will discuss the options during your consultation.
