I am not able to take a full gummy. It is causing me to have problems sleeping and causing hot flashes and a little anxiety

I signed up for Hers’ weight loss program after seeing advertisements for a five-month oral medication kit that included medical support. I understood and accepted that the specific kit would be prescribed based on the intake questionnaire. However, one of the medications prescribed require appropriate monitoring, particularly with laboratory work. As my dosages increased, I began experiencing side effects. When I raised these concerns—especially regarding the compounded medications—I was repeatedly told that I would “get used to them.” A significant issue with the compounded medications is that if you experience side effects from one component, you cannot discontinue or adjust an individual medication. Hers was unwilling to remove specific components and instead advised switching to a different kit, which would require an additional out-of-pocket expense. When I asked about monitoring labs related to increasing dosages, I was told I would need to follow up with my primary care provider for lab work, as Hers does not order or monitor labs. This was concerning, given that some prescribed medications, such as metformin, should be closely monitored due to risks like lactic acidosis and renal impairment. Additionally, I was advised I could stop one medication, bupropion, abruptly after being on it for approximately six weeks, despite the fact that it should be tapered to avoid potential withdrawal or adverse effects. Overall, I felt that my concerns about side effects and possible adverse reactions were consistently minimized. When I cancelled my renewal to avoid being charged again in February, my entire plan was immediately canceled, and I lost access to the patient portal altogether. This prevented any further communication or follow-up. I ultimately decided to return to managing my care with my primary care provider, as I no longer felt confident that Hers was fully aware of which medications I was taking, at what dosages, or for how long. Responses often felt generic and conditional (“if you’re on this dose” or “if you’re taking that medication”), rather than tailored to my actual treatment plan. Given the cost of the program—especially considering that many of the medications included are widely available at very low cost (some under $5, with metformin being free at many pharmacies)—the level of care and oversight did not meet my expectations. Unfortunately, I do not feel the service justified the price I paid.

I don't enjoy the fact that because I have a PO Box but do receive deliveries from UPS and Fed Ex at my rural residence, I have to drive 3 hours one way to be able to wait for my delivery.

I’m gaining weight (albeit slowly), not losing. I am 10 or 11 weeks in. I have bad nausea for several hours within 24 hours of administering the shot. My appetite is very reduced, and I am eating a lot less, but no results.

Currently nothing is going right in terms of weight loss. Not sure if it’s because of medication or something else.

My hair is falling out at an alarming rate. I have been using for a month

Do not want automatic refills. Please do not send me anymore.
