Male hormone pellets are small bioidentical testosterone implants placed under the skin of the upper hip during a brief in-office procedure. They release testosterone slowly and consistently, avoiding the weekly peaks and troughs of injections and the daily compliance of gels.
Chronic fatigue, low libido and erectile changes, loss of muscle mass, increased body fat (especially abdominal), brain fog, poor sleep, low mood or motivation, and reduced athletic performance.
Every patient begins with a discovery call and comprehensive lab work — total and free testosterone, estradiol, SHBG, thyroid, PSA, CBC, and metabolic panels. Your provider reviews your labs and designs a personalized pellet dose.
Insertion takes about 10 minutes. The upper hip is numbed with lidocaine, a small incision is made, and pellets are placed under the skin. Most men resume normal activity within 24–48 hours, avoiding vigorous lower-body training for 5–7 days.
Male testosterone pellets typically last 4–6 months. Most men notice improved energy, libido, and mood within 2–4 weeks with full benefits by 6–8 weeks. Follow-up labs are drawn before re-insertion to keep dosing optimal.
Testosterone pellets are one option within our bioidentical hormone therapy (BHRT) program. Men searching for BHRT Charlotte NC or hormone replacement therapy Charlotte NC can also choose injections or topical protocols when pellets are not the best fit.
Each plan is designed by a hormone doctor in Charlotte, NC who reviews your labs with you and adjusts dosing at every follow-up.
