It’s impossible to miss the obvious signs of aging, like stiff joints, a lack of energy, hot flashes, grumpy moods, and even less enjoyment behind closed doors. The culprit of aging, at least in part, is decreased hormone production and a lack of hormone balance.
Decreased hormone production and imbalances affect men and women in different ways. For instance, hormone imbalance contributes to menopausal discomforts in women, while men suffer from muscle mass loss.
To combat this imbalance and optimize your hormones for the best health possible, Hormone Replacement Therapy is an effective option. Thanks to EVEXIAS Medical Centers, patients living in the Rockwall or Southlake area have access to some of the most advanced hormone replacement care available.

What is Hormone Replacement Therapy, and How Does it Work?
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is a treatment designed to supplement or replace natural hormones your body produces to alleviate imbalances or symptoms related to aging or hormonal disorders. HRT involves administering hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone as pills, patches, gels, or pellets.
Hormone Replacement Therapy works by mimicking the body’s natural hormone levels to help restore balance. It’s an effective treatment, especially for women who experience hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings as they age into menopause.
In men, testosterone replacement has many potential health benefits, such as improving bone density, fat distribution, muscle strength and mass, and sex drive. As our bodies age, they produce fewer of the crucial hormones we rely on for health activity.
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), such as the EvexiPEL Method, uses hormones that are chemically identical to those produced by your body, offering a more natural approach to your hormone optimization goals.
At EVEXIAS Medical Centers, we tailor your BHRT treatment plan to address your specific health concerns and symptoms. This approach allows us to provide both men and women the care they need to continue living an active lifestyle as they age.
Benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy for Men and Women
Hormones are essential chemicals our body uses to coordinate the various functions to keep you moving. As we age, our body’s ability to create those chemicals naturally declines, so we give it a boost with Hormone Replacement Therapy. It may come with some fantastic health benefits, too, such as:
- Potential reduction in menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood swings
- May help increase energy levels, promote a better overall mood, support cognitive function, and enhance libido in men
- Can help strengthen bones, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis development, and could support fracture prevention in those with osteoporosis
- Some HRT options, such as conjugated estrogens plus medroxyprogesterone acetate, may impact insulin sensitivity without altering body composition or fat distribution
- Might help reduce all-cause cardiovascular mortality and may prevent cardiovascular disease, especially in menopausal women
Researchers continue to produce studies about the positive effects of Hormone Replacement Therapy, meaning the future of HRT could prevent and alleviate even more ailments or symptoms.

HRT and Pellet Therapy: A Long-Lasting Solution to Hormonal Imbalance
Doctors in Europe first created biomedical pellets from plants in the 1930s, but pellet therapy didn’t become a popular therapy option until HRT rose in popularity in the 1990s. Pellet therapy works by inserting small biomedical hormone pellets under the skin to release a steady dose over time.
Pellet therapy offers several benefits over alternatives like pills or creams, such as providing a consistent dosage. It’s also a more convenient treatment method for patients, requiring only a handful of treatments each year versus daily, weekly, or monthly.
Patients with memory issues may benefit from pellet therapy, as there is no daily medication to remember. Likewise, those with difficulties taking oral medications will find the pellet therapy option attractive.
The biggest drawback to pellet therapy is that there is a physical plant-based pellet placed under the skin. This administration method may be uncomfortable for some patients.
To address this drawback, EVEXIAS Medical Centers uses the EvexiPEL Method, which reduces patient discomfort. It also delivers the same consistent bioidentical hormone therapy dosage that other systems provide but in a method that prevents unsightly or painful extrusions.
Additional Support for Your Wellness Journey
EVEXIAS Medical Centers believe in complete holistic care and offer complementary therapies to support the positive benefits of HRT. We offer nutritional counseling, lifestyle recommendations, and even peptide therapy.
Peptide therapy uses specific amino acid sequences to target various health concerns and is a perfect addition to your hormone replacement therapy. When used together, this treatment enhances weight management, muscle growth, and cognitive functions, especially age-related concerns.
While your HRT rejuvenates you on the inside, providing you with higher energy levels and reduced brain fog, EVEXIAS Medical Centers also offers aesthetic treatments that further complement HRT. These aesthetic treatments, including Botox, help you look as good as you feel.
EVEXIAS Medical Centers also provides patients with a selection of nutraceutical and targeted supplement options to pair with hormone replacement therapy. Our HRT Complete (T) works in conjunction with pellet therapy to boost your results.
