Benefits of Hormone Therapy for Women

Perimenopause and menopause rarely arrive as one obvious symptom. More often it’s a cluster of changes that build over a few years: restless nights, a shorter fuse, weight that shifted without any change in your habits, and a mind that doesn’t feel as sharp by mid-afternoon. Bioidentical hormone pellet therapy replaces the hormones your body is making less of, without daily pills, patches, or creams to keep track of. Insertion takes just minutes in our office, and most women head right back to their day. As with any medical treatment, individual results vary, but women who choose hormone therapy commonly report:

Why Choose Calista Skin & Laser Center for Women's Hormone Therapy?

Steady Levels, Not Peaks and Crashes

Pellets release hormones gradually, around the clock, for months at a time. There are no pills to remember or creams to apply, and no daily ups and downs from missed doses.

Experienced in Women's Hormone Care

Hormone therapy is a big part of what we do every day. That experience helps us recognize how perimenopause and menopause show up differently from one woman to the next, and dose accordingly.

Your Whole Quality of Life

Menopause affects more than hot flashes. We look at sleep, mood, energy, intimacy, and body composition together, so your plan addresses how you actually feel day to day.

Dosing Guided by Your Labs

Your plan is built on your bloodwork, symptoms, and medical history, not a one-size-fits-all dose. We retest and adjust as your body changes.

Care That Listens

Many women are told their labs look fine while they still feel off. We take the time to hear what you're experiencing and explain your options plainly, so you can decide with confidence.

Women's Hormone Therapy in Colleyville, Serving Fort Worth, Arlington, Dallas and Southlake

For many women, the years around menopause bring changes that are easy to brush off one at a time: waking up at 3 a.m., hot flashes in the middle of a meeting, a lower sex drive, or losing a word mid-sentence. Taken together, they usually trace back to declining estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Hormone therapy for women is a well-established way to rebalance those levels and ease fatigue, mood swings, low libido, hot flashes, and poor sleep, while also supporting weight management, mental clarity, and bone health.

If any of this sounds familiar, you don’t have to just wait it out. Calista Skin & Laser Center is a trusted provider of women’s hormone therapy in the Fort Worth area. Our office is located in Colleyville, Texas, and we welcome women from Fort Worth, Arlington, Dallas, and Southlake. Our team uses bioidentical hormone pellets and lab-guided dosing to help you feel balanced and energized again. Call us today at 817-488-3838 or reach out online to schedule a free consultation.

Is Hormone Therapy Right for You?

Hormone changes don’t wait for your last period. Many women start noticing symptoms in their late 30s or 40s, during perimenopause, when levels swing up and down unpredictably. That’s also why a single lab test can come back normal even when you feel anything but. Hormone therapy may be worth exploring if you’re experiencing:

During Perimenopause:

During & After Menopause:

Hormone therapy isn’t the right fit for everyone. A history of breast or uterine cancer, blood clots, stroke, liver disease, or unexplained vaginal bleeding may rule it out, so we review your personal and family health history carefully during your consultation.

What to Expect with Women's Hormone Therapy

1

Free Consultation

Sit down with our provider to talk through your symptoms, cycle changes, health history, and goals. We'll explain how pellet therapy works for women, what results are realistic, and answer every question. There's no fee and no obligation.

2

Personalized Lab Panel

Bloodwork shows where your estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and other key markers stand, so your dose is based on data instead of guesswork. The lab panel typically runs about $150 and gives us what we need to build your plan.

3

Pellet Treatment

Once we've reviewed your results, we'll schedule your insertion. After numbing a small area near the hip, we place a tiny pellet under the skin in just a few minutes. Pellet treatments for women are $325, with no added consultation fee for that visit, and hormones release steadily over the next 3-4 months.

4

Follow-Up & Adjustments

We check in on how you're feeling, repeat labs as needed, and fine-tune your dose. Most women return every 3-4 months for a new pellet, and your plan evolves as you move through perimenopause and beyond.

Most women get started for around $475 total (labs + pellets), assuming no additional medical needs.

How Hormone Pellet Therapy Works for Women

Hormone pellets are tiny, rice-sized cylinders filled with bioidentical hormones, which are molecularly the same as the ones your ovaries produce. Placed just beneath the skin, they release a small, steady amount into your bloodstream for several months. For women in perimenopause, that consistency matters: natural hormone levels can spike and dip within the same month, and pellets help smooth out those swings instead of adding new ones. Because your body draws on the pellet gradually, levels stay more even throughout the day and night. The pellet dissolves completely on its own, so there’s nothing to remove later.

Your Women's Hormone Therapy Timeline

Before Treatment

For 3-5 days before your appointment, skip alcohol, NSAIDs like ibuprofen, and fish oil supplements to reduce the chance of bruising. Let us know about any blood thinners you take.

Day of Treatment

Insertion takes about 5-10 minutes. We numb a small area near your hip and place the pellet just beneath the skin. Most women return to their normal routine the same day.

3-5 Days After

Hold off on strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, and soaking in water. Mild tenderness or a small bruise at the site is normal and fades on its own.

2-3 Weeks After

Many women first notice better sleep and fewer hot flashes, followed by improvements in mood and energy.

4-6 Weeks After

Benefits continue to build, including libido and body composition. We’ll review how you feel and adjust your dose if needed.

3-4 Months Later

Come back for your next pellet so your hormone levels stay steady and your symptoms stay under control.

Choosing the Right Provider for Women's Hormone Therapy

Women’s hormones are more complex than a single number on a lab report, and getting the dose right takes experience. At Calista Skin & Laser Center, our providers build every plan around your labs, symptoms, and history, so you’re not stuck in a cycle of trial and error. We’ll walk you through exactly what we recommend and why, answer all of your questions, and keep adjusting your treatment as your body changes through perimenopause and menopause.

Hormone Pellets vs. Other Options for Women

Women have several ways to replace hormones, including pills, patches, gels and creams, injections, and pellets. Pills and patches need daily or weekly attention and can produce highs and lows in hormone levels. Creams and gels have to be applied consistently and can rub off on partners, children, or pets through skin contact. Pellets take a different approach, releasing a steady dose for 3-4 months from one quick office visit. Every option has trade-offs, and we’ll help you weigh them against your symptoms, health history, and lifestyle so your expectations are realistic.

Can You Combine Hormone Therapy with Other Treatments?

Absolutely. Many women pair hormone therapy with medical weight loss, nutrition and fitness changes, and aesthetic treatments to address the full picture of midlife changes. When your hormones are balanced, it’s often easier to see results from everything else you’re doing.

Women's Hormone Therapy FAQs

Most women need a new pellet every 3-4 months, depending on metabolism, activity level, and how quickly the body uses the hormones. We time your next insertion based on your symptoms and lab results so your levels stay steady.

No. Many women begin treatment during perimenopause, when symptoms often start years before periods stop completely. Testing as soon as symptoms appear means less time spent feeling unlike yourself.

Not usually. We numb the area thoroughly first, so most women feel only light pressure. The site may be a little sore or tender for a few days afterward.

Most women notice better sleep and fewer hot flashes within 2-3 weeks. Mood, energy, and mental clarity typically follow, and the full benefit usually develops over 4-6 weeks.

For most healthy women, bioidentical hormone therapy is well tolerated when it’s prescribed and monitored by an experienced provider. Because the hormones match the ones your body makes, side effects are usually mild. We review your health history in detail, monitor your labs regularly, and adjust your dose as needed. Women with certain conditions, such as a history of breast cancer or blood clots, may not be candidates.
