Hormone Replacement Therapy in Wichita, KS

What Is Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is a medical treatment designed to restore hormonal balance in both men and women whose natural hormone levels have declined due to age, medical conditions, or other factors. Hormones play an essential role in regulating your mood, metabolism, sexual function, and overall feelings of well-being. When certain hormone levels decrease, it can lead to fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, mood swings, hot flashes, or a reduced libido (just to name a few).

EvexiPEL is an advanced form of HRT that utilizes bioidentical hormone pellets, which are derived from natural plant sources and designed to closely mimic the molecular structure of the hormones produced naturally in your body. Unlike oral or topical hormone therapies that can cause fluctuations in hormone levels depending on when and how the dosages are delivered, EvexiPEL delivers a steady, consistent release of hormones over several months, helping you feel more balanced and energetic without the “ups and downs” often associated with other types of HRT.

What Are the Benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Hormone replacement therapy with EvexiPEL offers a wide range of benefits that go beyond simply restoring balance:

Improved Energy and Vitality

Once your hormone levels are stabilized with EvexiPEL, you will likely feel more alert and motivated, as well as experience an increase in energy.

Enhanced Mood and Mental Clarity

HRT can often help reduce irritability, anxiety, and depressive symptoms that tend to come with changes in hormones as you age. Other symptoms, such as brain fog, memory issues, and trouble focusing, can also be alleviated with HRT.

Better Physical Health

Hormone optimization can help you retain lean muscle mass, reduce fat accumulation (especially around your midsection), and strengthen your bones. It can even help improve cardiovascular health by lowering your cholesterol and maintaining the necessary elasticity of your blood vessels.

EvexiPEL utilizes bioidentical hormones, which means that the molecular structure of the hormones in the pellets is chemically identical to those naturally produced by your body. Because of this, bioidentical HRT typically interacts more effectively with your body, offering fewer side effects and allowing for more personalized treatments.

Am I a Good Candidate for Hormone Replacement Therapy Using EvexiPEL?

You may be a good candidate for EvexiPEL hormone replacement therapy if you are experiencing symptoms of hormonal imbalance, such as:

• Chronic fatigue
• Low energy
• Unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight
• Mood changes, irritability, or depression
• Night sweats or hot flashes
• Reduced sex drive or sexual dysfunction
• Trouble concentrating or memory issues

Both men and women can benefit from EvexiPEL pellet therapy. The best way to determine if EvexiPEL hormone replacement is right for you is to schedule a consultation with Jamie Alexander, PA, our certified hormone therapy provider. She will evaluate your medical history, listen to your symptoms, and review bloodwork to create a customized HRT plan.

How Is Hormone Replacement Therapy Using EvexiPEL Performed?

EvexiPEL hormone therapy uses tiny pellets that are inserted just beneath your skin, typically in the hip or buttock area. The procedure is performed by our PA, Jamie, right in our office and usually takes less than 15 minutes. After numbing the insertion site using a local anesthetic, Jamie places the pellets through a small incision. Once in place, the pellets slowly and steadily release hormones into your bloodstream, providing consistent levels for 3–6 months.

Unlike daily pills, patches, or creams, pellet HRT ensures a more predictable release of the necessary hormones, tailored specifically to your body’s needs.

Is There Downtime for Recovery After Hormone Replacement Therapy With EvexiPEL?

There is minimal downtime required after your EvexiPEL pellet insertion. Most patients can return to work or engage in light activities immediately after their procedure. You will typically need to avoid strenuous exercise, swimming, or heavy lifting for a few days to allow the area where the pellet was placed to heal. You may experience mild soreness or bruising at the insertion site, but this will resolve quickly.

What Can I Expect From My EvexiPEL Hormone Replacement Therapy Results?

You should notice improvements in your symptoms within a few weeks after your EvexiPEL pellet insertion, and your full benefits will become more apparent over the first couple of months as your hormone levels stabilize. Many people who undergo EvexiPEL HRT treatments experience significant increases in their energy levels, improved sleep, sharper focus, and better, more regulated moods. Physical benefits, like improved muscle tone and fat loss, often appear more gradually when paired with healthy lifestyle changes.

The results of your EvexiPEL pellet therapy generally last several months, depending on your individual metabolism. To maintain hormonal balance and ensure that you continue to feel your best, Dr. Conrad’s team will recommend scheduling follow-up appointments to monitor your hormone levels and make adjustments to your treatment plan to continue to optimize your results.
