Personalized Hormone Therapy: Suppositories Deliver Targeted Relief

If you have ever suffered from hormonal imbalances from menopause, andropause, or other conditions, you know how irritating it can be to try to find relief. Oral medications often have systemic side effects to limit the side effects, and creams can have no consistent absorption. This is where hormone replacement suppositories can deliver a better outcome.

At Allure Compounding Pharmacy, we are experts in custom compounded suppositories that provide hormones where they need to be delivered at a lower rate of side effect and a higher rate of benefit. Our compounded suppository products can be customized to your exact needs unlike commercial products which are designed to be one size fits all. Our suppositories maximize your chance of producing the best results.

Why Choose Suppositories for Hormone Replacement?

1. Direct, Localized Delivery

Suppositories bypass the digestive system, delivering hormones directly to vaginal or rectal tissues. This is especially beneficial for:

  • Vaginal dryness & atrophy (common in menopause)
  • Low libido (linked to hormonal decline)
  • Endometrial support (for women using estrogen therapy)

Because the medication acts locally, it reduces risks like blood clots or liver strain associated with oral hormones.

2. More Consistent Absorption Than Creams

While creams can be variable (with a downside of skin thickness or user error), suppositories dissolve at body temperature, which allows for better absorption. Research has demonstrated that vaginal progesterone suppositories (for example) produce significantly higher levels of progesterone in tissue than oral or topical forms.

3. Reduced Systemic Side Effects

Because suppositories target specific sites, lower doses are needed than oral medications. Therefore:

✔ No ‘first-pass’ liver metabolism (less risk of nausea or headaches)

✔ Less risk of hormone fluctuation (as in mood swings) 

✔ Great choice for patients who react negatively to fillers or preservatives

Who can benefit from hormone suppositories?

Menopausal women (for vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, urinary symptoms)

Post hysterectomy patients (who need localized estrogen) 

Fertility patients (who need progesterone support)

Men with low testosterone (rectal suppositories can boost levels without injections)
