A Solution as Individual as You
Designed to aid both women and men, Exuberan® by Virtua bio-identical hormone replacement pellet therapy balances testosterone and estrogen to levels similar to what the ovaries and testes produced during your younger adult years.
An individualized amount of bioidentical hormones is delivered through a pellet placed under the skin. To achieve a proper hormonal balance, the hormones, derived from plant-based compounds identically matching human hormones, are released into the body as the body needs them. Unlike other therapies that use equine estrogen or synthetic testosterone, bioidentical refers to estrogen and testosterone that “looks” exactly like that of humans.
What are pellets?
Pellets are compounded estradiol or testosterone. They’re made from organic plant materials that have the exact molecular structure of hormones found in the body. They’re pressed into a solid compound that’s about the size of a cooked grain of rice. Using a painless office procedure, the pellets are inserted under the skin in the hip area.
Medical literature has shown that pellets deliver a consistent level of hormones into the bloodstream, avoiding the fluctuations that occurs when using creams, pills or patches. The direct delivery into the bloodstream avoids changes in the liver seen with oral hormone therapy and eliminates production of increased clotting factors. Data supports this as the safest and most effective method of hormone replacement therapy.
In women, the pellets last 3 to 5 months; in men, 4 to 6 months.
