Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a personalized treatment designed to restore balance to your body’s natural hormone levels. At Dr. Knapton’s office in Pleasant Grove, Utah, we use bioidentical hormone pellets, which closely mimic the hormones naturally produced by your body. Managed by our in-house Nurse Practitioner, HRT is a safe, effective solution for alleviating hormone-related symptoms and improving your overall quality of life. 

The process begins with a detailed evaluation, including blood testing to assess your hormone levels. Once your results are analyzed, our Nurse Practitioner will discuss your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate treatment. If hormone replacement is needed, bioidentical hormone pellets are inserted under the skin during a quick, minimally invasive procedure. These pellets gradually release hormones, providing consistent levels over time, which leads to improved physical and emotional well-being. 

Hormone Replacement Therapy addresses a variety of symptoms and health concerns caused by hormonal imbalances, including:

• Chronic fatigue: Restore energy levels and reduce feelings of exhaustion.
• Anxiety and depression: Achieve emotional balance and reduce mood swings.
• Low libido and sexual health issues: Revitalize your sex drive and improve intimate relationships.
• Brain fog and mental clarity: Enhance focus, memory, and cognitive function.
• Sleep quality: Improve restfulness and achieve deeper, more restorative sleep.
• Anti-aging effects: Support skin elasticity, muscle tone, and overall vitality.

Bioidentical hormone pellets are a superior option compared to other forms of hormone replacement therapy, such as pills or creams. These pellets are more structurally identical to the hormones your body naturally produces compared to other hormone replacement methods. The pellet insertion process allows for a slow and steady release of hormones, eliminating the need for daily administration and reducing the risk of hormonal spikes and crashes. 

HRT is beneficial for both men and women experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalances due to aging, stress, or medical conditions. If you’ve noticed changes in your mood, energy, or overall health, hormone replacement therapy can help restore balance and improve your quality of life. 

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation to understand your symptoms and goals. Blood samples are taken and sent to a lab for analysis. Once results are ready, usually within 24 hours, our Nurse Practitioner will review your hormone levels and create a customized treatment plan. If pellets are recommended, the insertion is a quick, in-office procedure with minimal downtime. Patients often notice significant improvements in their symptoms within weeks of starting therapy.
