Can progesterone make you gain weight? 🔎
Progesterone itself does not directly cause weight gain. However, the way it acts in the body can influence weight-related changes in some individuals.
Progesterone may increase appetite and contribute to temporary fluid retention in certain people. These effects vary and depend on multiple factors and individual patient characteristics. In some cases, the response can be the opposite. By supporting healthier insulin regulation, progesterone may contribute to improved weight control and, in some individuals, even modest weight loss.
🌿 At Mega Aid, Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) is used to support a range of hormone-related conditions, including menopause symptoms, male and female hormone imbalance, sexual dysfunction, menstrual cycle regulation, infertility, and weight management.
Our therapy is delivered through customized topical and transdermal formulations, designed to provide targeted hormone support while limiting unnecessary systemic exposure. This localized approach helps reduce the risk of whole-body side effects and allows therapy to be tailored to each patient’s clinical needs and treatment goals.
Tingling in the feet. Burning sensations at night. Pain during everyday movements that were never painful before... Over time, these symptoms can interfere with balance, mobility, sleep, and quality of life.
🧬 Neuropathy pain may develop as a result of chronic conditions such as diabetes, nerve compression, viral nerve injury, or damage to peripheral nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. While the underlying causes differ, the mechanism is similar: disrupted nerve signaling that leads to persistent pain, altered sensation, and functional limitations.
🧩 At Mega Aid, neuropathy pain management focuses on individualized care rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Customized topical compounded therapy allows active ingredients to be delivered directly to affected nerve areas, supporting symptom relief while minimizing systemic exposure. This approach may be especially valuable for patients who require individualized formulations when standard, fixed-dose medications do not adequately address their symptoms.
For patients, each formulation is developed with careful consideration of safety, tolerability, and therapeutic goals. For physicians, this provides a targeted option that can be integrated into comprehensive neuropathy care plans.
Effective neuropathy management starts with understanding the condition and choosing therapy that works with the patient’s physiology, not against it 💚
Standard antifungal options often focus on a single active ingredient, and fungal nail infections may recur over time 🦠
At Mega Aid, treatment is built around customized topical formulations that combine multiple therapeutic actions in one compound. Depending on the condition of the nail, the type of infection, and patient-specific factors, formulations may include antifungal agents such as azoles and allylamines, alongside anti-inflammatory components like glucocorticoids and NSAIDs.
Our customized approach is used in the management of fungal nail infections (onychomycosis / tinea unguium), where targeted pe*******on and long-term control are essential for successful outcomes.
👣 By addressing both the fungal cause and the surrounding tissue response, customized compounding supports more effective and better tolerated treatment outcomes.
Physicians can send prescriptions through EMR integrations, e-prescribing systems, fax, or calling the pharmacy directly, whichever fits best into their current practice. Our pharmacy verifies and processes each prescription promptly, keeping providers informed throughout dispensing 🔍
Throughout the process, we focus on clarity and reliability. Prescriptions are handled by a pharmacy team experienced in customized compounding, regulatory standards, and patient-specific needs.
In addition, Medication Therapy Management is integrated into our workflow to support adherence, monitor therapy over time, and maintain structured communication between patients, providers, and the pharmacy 🩺
All formulations are prepared in a PCAB-accredited laboratory and follow USP and standards. Patients receive therapy prepared with precision, consistency, and care.

Low libido in women is rarely caused by a single factor.
In clinical practice, it most often reflects a combination of physical health, hormonal balance, psychological state, and relationship context.
🌸 Chronic medical conditions, certain medications, hormonal changes across life stages, prolonged stress, and relationship factors may contribute to changes in libido and sexual responsiveness. Identifying these contributing factors is essential for selecting an appropriate treatment strategy.
At Mega Aid, treatment for female sexual dysfunction is based on customized Bioidentical Hormone Compounded therapy. Each formulation is developed with consideration of hormonal balance, vascular response, underlying health conditions, and concurrent medications. This approach allows therapy to be tailored to the patient’s treatment regimen while minimizing systemic exposure.
Sexual health is an integral part of overall well-being. Addressing it effectively begins with understanding the underlying mechanisms and choosing care that adapts to the individual patient 🌱
Neuropathic pain arises from dysfunction within the peripheral nervous system and is characterized by abnormal nerve signaling. Because pain originates from altered nerve activity, treatment commonly focuses on medications that modulate neuronal signaling pathways, with gabapentin being one of the most frequently used options in clinical practice 🧬
When gabapentin is prescribed in oral form, systemic therapy may not be well tolerated. Drowsiness, dizziness, and gastrointestinal effects may interfere with daily functioning and reduce long-term adherence, particularly in patients who require ongoing neuropathic pain management. These limitations have increased interest in localized treatment approaches.
🧪 Topical gabapentin is designed to deliver medication directly to affected nerves while limiting systemic exposure. For patients with localized neuropathic pain, this strategy may support improved tolerability and more consistent use without unnecessary whole-body effects.
At Mega Aid, topical gabapentin is incorporated into a personalized neuropathy care model. Each formulation is compounded based on the patient’s diagnosis, sensitivities, and therapeutic goals. In addition to gabapentin, formulations may include tricyclic antidepressants such as doxepin or amitriptyline, local anesthetics like lidocaine, and counterirritants such as capsaicin to support a multi-mechanism approach to neuropathic pain management.
Our in-house Medication Therapy Management team collaborates closely with healthcare providers to monitor treatment response and adjust therapy as needed. All active ingredients are sourced from FDA-registered suppliers, and all compounded formulations are prepared in a PCAB-accredited laboratory in compliance with USP and standards.
This approach supports effective pain control while minimizing unnecessary systemic exposure.

📊 Osteoarthritis affects more than 32.5 million adults in the United States, making it the most common joint disorder nationwide. For millions of patients, chronic joint pain and stiffness gradually become part of daily life.
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease in which cartilage slowly breaks down and the underlying bone begins to change. As joint structures deteriorate, inflammation, pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility develop over time. The condition most often affects the knees, hips, hands, spine, and neck. Age, previous joint injury, repetitive stress, and biomechanical overload are among the key contributing factors.
At Mega Aid, arthritis therapy is built around customized transdermal treatment solutions designed to deliver medication directly to the source of pain. Our compounded transdermal formulations may include carefully selected drug classes such as:
🧪 NSAIDs
🧪 Muscle relaxants
🧪 Local anesthetics
🧪 Counterirritants
Because these medications are applied topically, this helps minimize systemic side effects. Each formulation is individually customized based on the patient’s condition, daily regimen, allergies, and clinical contraindications to ensure both safety and therapeutic precision.
Choosing the right pharmacy model directly affects treatment safety, tolerability, and clinical outcomes.
🔍 A specialty pharmacy is essential when therapy requires complex, high cost manufactured medications available only in standard forms. These treatments are critical for managing rare and chronic diseases, but they offer limited flexibility.
🧪 Compounding, in contrast, becomes medically justified when a patient requires a higher concentration of active ingredients in a single medication or an alternative dosage form such as topical or transdermal to reduce systemic side effects, avoid allergens, and improve therapeutic efficacy. It may also be necessary when a customized multi active formulation is needed to improve patient adherence.
At Mega Aid, compounding is not just medication preparation. It is a controlled clinical process supported by Medication Therapy Management, continuous patient monitoring, and direct collaboration with healthcare providers. All formulations are prepared in a PCAB accredited, USP compliant laboratory using FDA registered ingredients to ensure consistent quality, safety, and therapeutic reliability.
If treatment requires precision rather than standardization, compounding becomes not an alternative but a necessity 🎯

Does BHRT make you look younger? 🔎
Aging skin is not only about time. It is also about hormones. As estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels decline, the skin gradually loses collagen, hydration, and thickness. This is one of the key biological reasons behind wrinkles, dryness, and reduced elasticity.
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) does not reverse aging, but it can directly influence several mechanisms responsible for visible skin changes.
🧬 Estrogen supports collagen and elastin synthesis, which are essential for firmness and resilience.
🧬 Progesterone plays a role in moisture retention and barrier function.
🧬 Testosterone contributes to skin thickness and structural support.
When these hormones are brought back into optimal balance under medical supervision, the skin often becomes more hydrated, denser, and more elastic. Clinical practice shows that properly prescribed BHRT may help reduce fine lines, improve skin texture, and support healthier skin aging overall.
At Mega Aid, BHRT is one of the key areas of our specialization. Through close collaboration with physicians, we compound individualized medications tailored to each patient’s hormonal profile and therapeutic needs. Every formulation is prepared in compliance with USP standards and supported by ongoing clinical monitoring to ensure real therapeutic outcomes, not cosmetic shortcuts.

What makes a compounded medication truly effective? 💡
At Mega Aid, the process begins with the use of FDA-registered ingredients and continues with a mandatory Drug Utilization Review before production. This allows us to identify potential interactions, contraindications, and safety risks in advance, before the medication ever reaches the patient.
We believe that individualization in complex therapy is not optional, it is essential. Patients respond differently to the same substance, require different delivery routes, and need specific concentrations that are often unavailable in standard pharmacies. That is why our pharmacists collaborate closely with prescribing physicians to compound formulations that truly match each patient’s clinical needs while maintaining both efficacy and safety.
🎯 Our approach is grounded in pharmaceutical standards and regulatory compliance. Every medication is compounded under PCAB accreditation and in accordance with USP and USP requirements. These standards directly affect both patient safety and physician confidence in therapeutic outcomes.
Proper compounding is not about making a medication “custom” in form alone. It is about developing therapies that are clinically justified and accurately aligned with real patient needs 💚
