You Shouldn’t Trust Just Anyone With Managing Your Hormones

When it comes to managing your hormone replacement therapy (HRT), you don’t want just anyone in charge. Hormones play a vital role in our overall health and have a huge impact on how our bodies function. For HRT to be effective (and to minimize negative side effects), the right combination of hormones must be administered with precise dosage. Sure, you might be able to get hormone treatments at a med spa, but does that mean you should? In our professional opinion, the answer is a resounding “absolutely not.”

If you take a look at the treatments we offer here at Austin Labiaplasty and Vaginal Rejuvenation, as well as at our urogynecology practice, Austin Urogynecology, you’ll notice that we don’t offer breast augmentations or Brazilian butt lifts. Because we are a practice that is highly specialized in female pelvic medicine (and do it very, very well), we don’t offer procedures that fall outside of our wheelhouse. Not necessarily because we couldn’t, mind you, but because it’s not what we’re best at. We take our patients’ health and our reputation seriously, and we would never compromise on the quality of care that our clients receive. You’re probably familiar with the phrase “Jack of all trades, master of none”; well, we’d argue that it applies to many of the med spas and clinics out there offering every procedure under the sun. 

Along those lines, while there are many different forms and applications of hormone replacement therapy in medicine we specifically offer SottoPelle testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). We chose SottoPelle because the use of hormone pellets allows us to provide more precise dosage than other delivery methods. With pellets, hormones are secreted continuously over time rather than all at once, which means fewer negative side effects and ups and downs. SottoPelle is also a form of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), which means that the hormones used are chemically identical to the ones created by your own body. 

If it isn’t already clear, we care about women’s wellness and we pride ourselves on making it our top priority. We’re also experts when it comes to conditions related to hormone imbalance and female pelvic anatomy. So please, don’t go to just anyone for your testosterone replacement therapy… go to someone you can trust.
