About Alexandra Pellicena, MD, PA
Dr. Pellicena runs her own solo OB-GYN office in the Houston Heights and has been in the area since 2010. She still practices obstetrics, including high-risk pregnancies, so midlife care sits inside a full gynecology practice rather than a standalone hormone clinic. Her menopause page is written in her own voice and puts the emphasis on hormonal assessment and bioidentical hormone replacement across more than one route of administration. The practice is a certified BioTE provider, so the hormone route it actually describes is compounded pellets placed under the skin and replaced every four to six months. She also offers the BioTE nutraceutical line and will build a supplement plan alongside the hormone therapy. She grew up in Madrid and sees patients in Spanish as well as English.
