“I take topical testosterone for osteoporosis. It is importan...”

I take topical testosterone for osteoporosis. It is important to me as part of a regimen to improve my bone density and avoid debilitating fractures. My previously low T levels have responded well (verified by lab by my endocrinologist) to my topical gel from vital care compounder. I am also a physician, and my patients often cannot afford the obscene cost for brand name topical Testosterone, which has NO advantage to compounded gel.

“My husband was diagnosed with advanced stage prostate cancer...”

My husband was diagnosed with advanced stage prostate cancer a year ago. When they found it, we only had weeks to make a decision on treatment. Because he was only 60 and had a lot of living left to do, we decided on radical prostatectomy. Having his prostate removed gave him the best chance of surviving cancer but that decision also came with a cost. As an RN myself, I knew there was a big possibility that he would suffer from erectile dysfunction. As happy as my husband was to be cancer free, he was devastated over his issues with ED. We tried some of the oral meds with no luck. I did some research and we decided to ask his physician if he could try the penile injection hormone therapy which is three drugs mixed together to make a compound medication. We were so hopeful that this was the answer. I can tell you from experience that this compound hormone injection therapy works! My sweet husband has been on it for a year and is doing great. It has given him the boost of confidence that he needed desperately to have a sexually satisfied life. I highly recommend this compound medication to men that are struggling with ED. It gave us our life back after cancer.

Before I started this hormone replacement therapy, I had become a mess. The lack of a full night's sleep for a very long period of time had really worn my body out. I was having short term memory loss, was very irritable, and feeling tired constantly. Since starting my meds, all the issues I was having to deal with are extremely better. And best of all, I only take the strength that I need. We had to adjust a couple of times but it works great for me now.

My sex life has improved since starting my replacement therapy. I tell every woman going through pre-menopause about how great this has made me feel personally and physically. Several of them have thanked me for recommending cBHT replacement therapy. It has been awesome for me to feel the way I did before pre-menopause started. Please keep it going for those of use in this stage of life.

“cBHT has greatly improved my quality of life. I have hypothy...”

cBHT has greatly improved my quality of life. I have hypothyroidism, low progesterone, low testosterone, and low estrogen. Approximately 20 years ago, I began experiencing increased fatigue, unexplained weight gain, and fewer menstrual cycles. I thought that I just needed to exercise more and eat a more healthy diet. It seemed to work for a while then back to the same decline. I would then workout harder and start to see progress then the same unexplainable cycle of decline. I used to be a morning person, had plenty of energy during the day, and slept well at night. I even developed obstructive sleep apnea requiring the use of CPAP at night aftering eventually gaining 60-70 pounds over a period of about 10 years. I asked my PCP about hypothyroidism and he didn't think that my lab work (TSH only) warranted a referral to an endocrinologist. I finally got an appointment with a doctor that specialized in integrative health, who looked at my lab work from the past couple of years and immediately prescribed natural supplement for my hypothyroidism and ordered more specific labwork for hormone levels. I also discovered that I was gluten sensitive. I was started on cBHT then a gluten-free diet and lost 40 pounds in about six months. I had more energy, was sleeping better, and no longer required use of CPAP at night. Things were moving in a positive direction. There are still some setbacks and challenges, but I could not have done it without cBHT!
