Compounded hormone therapy in Wichita: what to expect
Many Wichita women and men use compounded hormones prescribed by their provider. Here's how the process works at a local compounding pharmacy, from prescription to pickup.
Why hormones are often compounded
Commercial hormone products come in set strengths and forms. A compounding pharmacist can prepare the exact strength and combination your provider prescribes — for example progesterone or estradiol/Bi-Est in a cream or troche — based on your labs and symptoms.
Made to your prescription, not a menu
Every hormone compound is custom. If your provider adjusts your dose after follow-up labs, we prepare the new strength in our own Wichita lab — no waiting on an out-of-state mail-order compounder.
How to get started
- Already have a provider? Ask them to send the prescription using our prescriber card.
- Using another compounder? Request a transfer.
- Want guidance? Learn about our hormone therapy services or ask our pharmacist.
