Recourses:
-
BHRT Options via Online Membership Offerings: (And use the links I provide to get you good/best deals!)
-
Glow Natural Wellness: Absolutely my first choice, hands down, based on the quality and effectiveness of their product, their offerings, service and available options. I also get great discounts with them for YOU via the provided links. So a BIG discount is available on their Monthly Hormone Club (MHC). When you register for and join the Master Class with Dr. Michelle Sands: click here , you will then receive the MHC special for $139 instead of $299!
-
And if you can't afford $139 a month, they are willing to work with you. So just ask them! This is an other great reason why I love them so much. The MHC offers unlimited access to nurses, additional support, the hormone creams that you need, and more.
-
On top of that Glow Natural Wellness offers a FREE Intro Call with their nurses before signing up for any membership, so you can ask them any question you have prior. I would do this after you've watched the Master Class: schedule here.
-
BHRT Vaginal Cream and DHEA Vaginal Cream: Also from Glow Natural Wellness: It is called "Glow Below". Use the link here . And that link will give you $20 off their creams! And know that the bottle will last you at least 3- 4 months. All created by the fabulous ND, Dr. Michelle Sands!
-
-
Thrive Lab is also a good option for BHRT, and insurance often covers their visit with the NP or Dr. (with Glow Wellness it's all included, and they even offer a free consult before committing): click here
-
FYI: I have compared over 5 online BHRT companies that provide online BHRT services to Women, and People with Vulvas and Vaginas, and Glow Natural Wellness comes out at the top because of excellent communication, appointments with nurses, quality of service, great auto shipments when you need new hormones, a chat box, and they are even willing to work on price with you for the Monthly Hormone Club. You can literally talk to an nurse or NP who's specialized in peri and menopause whenever you want! And then ThriveLab is 2nd for me. I know about My Alloy, and a few of my clients were not happy with their lack of communication and why they prescribe their hormones, they also seemed to try to upsell you for products you don't need, and some were simply prescribed anti-depressants (and went to Natural glow wellness instead), and their price is higher as well. Same goes for Winona. So yes - I've checked them all out for you :)
