Adding a me-too, because a thread of one person's experience is not much use. Nothing to add that would improve it.

For compounded supply users considering compounded for the first time: here's a step-by-step guide:
- Get a prescription from your doctor (telehealth counts)
- Research 503B compounding pharmacies with good community reviews
- Verify their FDA registration and inspection history
- Request a COA for your specific compound before ordering
- Start with a 1-month supply to test
- Consider sending a sample to Janoshik for independent verification
- Track your response compared to brand (if you were on it previously)

Compounding pharmacy licensing verification for compounded supply: before ordering, verify your pharmacy's credentials:
- State Board of Pharmacy license — check on your state BOP website
- FDA registration (for 503B) — check on fda.gov
- DEA registration if handling controlled substances
- PCAB accreditation — voluntary but demonstrates commitment to quality
- USP <797>/<800> compliance for sterile compounding
This takes 10 minutes of research and could save you from receiving substandard or unsafe medication.

One thing that is still open after anders_CPH’s answer:
How long did you give it before you decided it was working?
