Overview
BioTE Medical, a pioneer in precision and preventive medicine, has leveraged over 80 years of scientific research to create clinically validated protocols for detecting and addressing early signs of aging. We partner with our patients to continuously evaluate symptoms and lab results, employing a custom dosing algorithm to tailor individualized treatment plans.
What is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement?
BioTE’s approach to bioidentical hormone replacement therapy involves custom-compounded pellets, roughly the size of a grain of rice, containing testosterone and estrogen. These hormones are identical to those naturally produced by the body and aim to restore hormonal balance. The pellets are inserted subcutaneously into the buttocks, where they release a steady stream of hormones as needed. The pellets dissolve gradually, requiring replacement every 4-6 months, depending on the patient.
The Importance of Hormone Balance
Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone are crucial for various bodily functions in both men and women. As individuals age, hormone production typically decreases, starting as early as the mid-20s or early 30s. Women experience significant drops in estrogen and testosterone during menopause, while men may encounter a similar decline in testosterone known as andropause. Hormonal imbalances, characterized by excess or deficiency of hormones, can disrupt vital bodily processes, leading to various health issues.

BioTE Clinical-Grade Nutraceuticals
BioTE’s clinical-grade nutraceuticals play a vital role in promoting healthier aging by addressing nutritional deficiencies that may have developed over time. These supplements are specifically designed to support hormone and thyroid function, offering tailored benefits for those affected by poor diet, stress, health conditions, excessive alcohol consumption, and drug-nutrient interactions.

BioTE® Prescription Peptide Therapeutics
Peptides, which are present in every cell and tissue, act as biological messengers, transferring information between tissues through the bloodstream. BioTE has identified specific peptides that enhance healthy aging by supporting hormone optimization and improving cellular efficiency. These peptides contribute to stress management, libido enhancement, better intestinal absorption, quicker recovery, and overall improvements in liver, heart, and brain function, as well as better sleep, fat burning, and muscle building.
