EvexiPEL® therapy uses under-the-skin pellets to deliver bioidentical hormones to the body. These rice-sized pellets are inserted during a quick, in-office procedure and consistently release hormones over several months. The EvexiPEL® approach is based on precision medicine, where hormone doses are customized for each patient based on their needs. Pellet therapy is part of our comprehensive hormone optimization program that includes ongoing monitoring and adjustments to achieve optimal results.
Achieve Optimal Wellness
The preparation for EvexiPEL® bioidentical hormone therapy begins with a comprehensive medical consultation. During this initial visit, patients undergo testing and discuss their complete medical history, current symptoms, and treatment goals with our healthcare provider. Blood work is crucial in determining hormonal imbalances and establishing a baseline for therapy.
Our provider determines the correct hormone dose based on the patient’s age, weight, and other characteristics. Then, they insert the pellets (rice-sized capsules containing hormones) under the skin. This is performed using a minor incision, typically in the hip or buttock area, under local anesthesia. The process takes only 30 seconds for females and 60-90 seconds for males. It is virtually painless. The incision is closed and bandaged for several days.
After insertion, the pellets release a consistent, steady dose of hormones directly into the bloodstream over several months. This method mimics the body’s natural hormone production, eliminating the need for daily medications or treatments.
Additional appointments are scheduled to monitor progress and ensure the therapy works effectively. Our provider may adjust the treatment based on evolving symptoms and follow-up lab results to maintain optimal hormone balance.
The frequency of pellet insertion depends on the patient’s gender and individual hormone needs. Women typically require new pellets every 3 to 5 months, while men generally need them approximately every 7 months. This schedule ensures a consistent and steady release of hormones, maintaining optimal levels over time. Regular follow-up appointments and monitoring help determine the ideal timing for each individual’s therapy.

Some insurance companies cover the cost of pellets, especially for men. Others do not. We help patients check their insurance coverage to see if their expenses will be reimbursed.
