The Pellet Insertion Method:
A small incision is made, and the hormone pellet is inserted. After, the insertion site is covered with a small bandage. The pellet dissolves, and the body absorbs the contents, leaving nothing behind. Every patient's symptoms are unique, so each journey is customized to fit your needs.Materials: (provided in the trocar kits)
