It’s 3 months after her hormone balancing with BioTE bio-identical hormone pelleting. Re-pelleting is generally 3 to 4 months for women. Let’s read on to see if Miss Open-Minded is interested in being pelleted again.

3 Months Later…

Let me tell you, I know it is time for my pellet re-insert. I am moody, irritable, can’t sleep, etc. What a difference! (Not so much the hot flashes but all other symptoms YES!!)

I am re-pelleting on Saturday. I CAN NOT WAIT!!!

If you or anyone you know feels any of these symptoms click here for the symptom checklist. Call the office at 630-687-9595 to make an appointment with one of the certified BioTE Bio-identical hormone specialists. I hope that sharing this journey of hormone balancing has been helpful. Let me tell you, it has changed my life and it can change yours too.

Sincerely,

Miss Open Minded

4th Entry of 5 part Series: Is It Time For A Boost?

So far so good for Miss Open Minded and her hormone balancing journey. Now read on and let’s see if it is time for a boost?

4 to 6 Weeks Out – Time for a Boost?

Today is 5 weeks from the pellet procedure.

I feel so much better than I did prior to pelleting. I had to redo my labs so the doctor can tell where my hormone levels are and if I need a boost. I did not.  I cannot stress enough how my anxiety and mood swings have gone away. Also, I have not had a hot flash for 2 weeks. It is time consuming taking all the meds, but well worth the time!! Only time can tell for what wonderful surprise is next. I started this journey not knowing where it would lead (still don’t) but I am liking the path I am on right now.

Sincerely,

Miss Open Minded

3rd Entry of 5 part Series: Feeling Better!

Last week we saw where Miss Open Minded was off to a great start. Here she talks about the first few weeks after getting her bio-identical hormones.

First Few Weeks – Feeling Better!

The day after there was some soreness in the area where the pellets were placed as well as some bruising. I did have a slight-mild headache and some hot flashes in the evening, however all that has resolved and overall I am feeling good.  I am taking all of the supplements recommended by Dr. Wright at the time of pelleting.

My sleeping has gotten better. I feel more rested. My mood swings are not as bad. I have noted more energy and I have lost approximately 4 to 5 pounds.

Sincerely,

Miss Open Minded

2nd Entry of 5 Part Series: Off To A Great Start!

Last week we read about Miss Open Minded’s experience with menopause. Here she talks about the day of her actual pelleting and the first day following.

Day 1: Off To A Great Start!

First of all, having the pellet inserted was nothing. No pain, no discomfort after or during the night actually I slept a full 5 hours, which I have not done in over 2 years at least.  Dr. Wright explained every single detail of what she was doing and why I needed the supplements she asked me to take.  I did my morning supplements today with ease.  I am so excited to see the progress I will see and make.  It is approximately 10am the next morning and I feel great, not tired or sluggish. What a great start! J

1st Entry of a 5 part Series: Menopause Sucks!

menopause

As you may know our office is now offering bio-identical hormone balancing and one of our team members (We’ll call her “Miss Open Minded”) has agreed to talk about her experience with menopause and having her hormones balanced. She has kept a journal of her experience. Over the next 5 weeks we will share a compilation of her log entries with you.

Please see here her first entry she wrote the day before she was pelleted about her experience with menopause. 

 

The Day before BioTE

I have had enough already! For the past year I have been losing sleep, gaining weight, losing my temper and getting very angry quickly. The night and sometimes day sweats are the worst ever! It all SUCKS!

I am so disgusted with who I have become. I cannot even look at myself in the mirror. I hate what is looking back at me. I know there are many others just like me thinking and wondering if this is all due to menopause. Tomorrow I am going to get a hormone pellet which is inserted within my skin on my hip/butt area. The company is called bioTE medical and Dr. Kimberly Wright will be inserting this pellet. It is a release of hormones needed for me which she found out just by doing a blood test!

I am so excited to get this done. I heard it is also good for weight loss and muscle gain. I will keep a daily journal of my progress and report back to you. I will be the happiest person alive to give up all my mood swings, weight gain, loss of sleep and day/night sweats!!

Join me on this journey to see where it will take us…….

Sincerely,

Miss Open Minded
