Today at Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, a woman in her 40s called and said,
“My doctor prescribed DHEA capsules, but from a compounding pharmacy. I’ve seen DHEA at the store—what’s different about this one?”

I smiled. “Great question! DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is a hormone your body naturally produces. It plays a big role in energy, metabolism, mood, and hormone balance. While you can buy generic DHEA supplements over the counter, compounded DHEA capsules are very different—they’re customized, pharmaceutical-grade, and prescribed for specific needs.”

She asked, “So why would my doctor send me to you instead of a regular store?”

“Because we can customize the exact strength and form your body needs,” I explained. “Over-the-counter options are one-size-fits-all, but compounded DHEA can be adjusted based on your lab results, age, gender, and treatment goals. We can even use bioidentical forms of DHEA for better compatibility with your body.”

She asked, “What’s it usually prescribed for?”

I replied, “Some of the most common reasons include:
✔ Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
✔ Fatigue and adrenal support
✔ Low libido or mood swings
✔ Cognitive decline or immune support
✔ Aging and skin elasticity concerns”

She was thoughtful. “Okay, but is it safe?”

“Yes,” I said, “when monitored properly. Your doctor will usually start you on a low dose and check your hormone levels regularly. Since it’s a hormone, too much can cause side effects like acne, oily skin, or irritability, which is why we make custom doses to avoid that.”

Before she hung up, I added, “At Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, we compound DHEA capsules fresh, based on your prescription, with no unnecessary fillers or dyes, and we offer free delivery to make your treatment easy and consistent.”

She sounded confident. “Thank you—this actually feels more personalized than I expected!”

And that’s exactly what we aim for. At Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, we’re here to help patients feel their best with personalized, safe, and effective hormone therapy options.

Until tomorrow,
