Pellet therapy is a form of bioidentical hormone replacement designed to restore balance when your body’s natural hormone production declines. Biote is the brand of pellets used at Transform Your Health—a trusted system known for consistency and quality. This therapy is for people dealing with fatigue, mood swings, low libido, weight gain, brain fog, or other symptoms tied to hormonal imbalance—whether from menopause, andropause, or other metabolic shifts.
At Transform Your Health, Dr. Erika Bradshaw and her team bring an integrative, functional medicine approach to hormone optimization at both their Palm Harbor and Brandon locations. Rather than treating hormones in isolation, they evaluate each patient individually to understand how hormone imbalance fits into your broader health picture.
What Biote Pellet Therapy Can Do
Biote pellets contain bioidentical hormones—compounds that are chemically identical to what your body produces naturally. For women, this typically means estrogen and testosterone. For men, it’s testosterone.
The pellets are about the size of a grain of rice and are placed under the skin during a simple in-office procedure. Once inserted, they dissolve slowly and release hormones in a way that mimics your body’s natural rhythm.

Who Is a Candidate?
Biote pellet therapy is a good option for women going through perimenopause or menopause and men dealing with andropause.
Candidates typically have documented hormone imbalances confirmed through lab testing. This therapy works well for people who haven’t responded to other hormone delivery methods or who prefer the convenience of long-lasting pellets over daily applications or weekly injections. It’s also a fit for those committed to optimizing their hormone levels as part of a longevity-focused health plan that includes nutrition, stress management, and metabolic support.
