Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
White Onyx Functional Medicine · Gardner, MA
Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy
Restoring hormonal balance.
When your hormones are out of balance, everything can feel off. Low energy. Weight gain. Brain fog. Mood changes. Poor sleep. Low libido. Hot flashes. Loss of motivation. These symptoms are often dismissed as a normal part of aging—but they don’t have to be.
At White Onyx Functional & Aesthetic Medicine, we provide personalized hormone optimization using advanced evaluation and the Biote Method® of bioidentical hormone therapy. By looking at your symptoms, health history, and hormone levels, we create a treatment approach designed to help you feel balanced, energized, and like yourself again.
What Is BHRT (Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy)?
Small changes in hormones can have a big impact.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) uses hormones that are chemically identical to those naturally produced by the body. As hormone levels change due to aging, stress, or other factors, some individuals experience symptoms that affect energy, mood, sleep, metabolism, and overall quality of life.
At White Onyx, we use the Biote Method® as part of our approach to hormone optimization. This method uses bioidentical hormone pellets, which are placed under the skin and gradually release hormones over time to support more consistent hormone levels. Every treatment plan begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether hormone optimization is appropriate for your individual needs.
When your hormones change, your body notices
You may know that something feels off even when routine testing has not provided clear answers. At White Onyx, we take a deeper look at your symptoms, health history, lifestyle, and laboratory findings to understand the patterns affecting your well-being.
We treat the whole person through a root cause approach, identifying the core reasons for your symptoms and chronic health issues. We want to help you achieve your highest quality of life so you can live life fully!

What is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT)?
Bioidentical hormones are chemically identical to the hormones naturally produced by your body. They are used to help restore hormone levels when testing indicates a deficiency or imbalance.
Who is a candidate for hormone optimization?
Hormone optimization may benefit both men and women experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, mood changes, poor sleep, hot flashes, low libido, or other signs of hormonal imbalance.
What types of hormone therapy do you offer?
Treatment options vary based on your individual needs and may include bioidentical hormone pellets and other hormone replacement methods when clinically appropriate. Your provider will recommend the option that’s best for you.

Every patient responds differently, but many people begin noticing improvements within several weeks. Ongoing follow-up appointments allow us to monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed.
What is the Biote Method®?
The Biote Method® is a form of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy that uses hormone pellets to deliver consistent hormone support over time. At White Onyx, the Biote Method® is incorporated into a personalized hormone optimization plan based on your symptoms, health history, and laboratory findings.

Pellets gradually release hormones over time, with many patients returning for follow-up treatments approximately every few months. Your provider will determine the appropriate timing based on your individual response and treatment goals.
