There are many choices when it comes to hormone therapy methods when meeting the needs of the transgender patient. The challenge is finding the one that will make their transition easier and maintain hormonal balance for a lifetime. There needs to be a continuous level of hormone delivered as the body requires it for both development and maintenance. Release of testosterone and/or estradiol directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the gastrointestinal system and liver, is preferred due to the risks of other hormone treatments especially the risk of blood clots associated with the oral approach. Many transgender men and women chose SottoPelle as their Hormone Replacement Therapy because we have decades of experience and a science-based methodology to help you make the best decisions for their hormone replacement. Helping you help them with transgender dosing site and materials.
SottoPelle Therapy SottoPelle Therapy is an all-natural bio-identical hormone replacement therapy that specializes in the use of subcutaneous testosterone and estradiol pellets. It was developed in 1992 by the late Dr. Gino Tutera who also created the individualized dosing that is widely used today.  He is also the 1st and only one to own several patents on a dosing site to help providers with dosing their patients.  Dr. Tutera always believed in training providers the best way so they in turn could help their patients as he did for over 40 years.  He found that pellets are the only true source of bio-identical hormone with the right delivery system to help people age gracefully.  The use of biologically identical, non-synthetic, testosterone and estradiol is safe, and the use of pellets as the delivery method provides is effective. The delivery method of pellets allows for the continual release of the hormone - the key to improving brain and muscle function. Other delivery methods result in sporadic, or a "roller coaster," effect in the delivery and release of hormones within the body. These methods include pills, patches, injectables, and creams. Literature shows that the use of pellets and all-natural testosterone carries less risk compared to synthetic testosterone.  The Science of SottoPelle focuses on restoring the natural physiology of the body to its normal state using precisely measured doses customized to an individual patient's needs to achieve the appropriate physiologic effect to benefit that particular patient.
