SOMERSET, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / October 12, 2022 / There's nothing simple about undergoing fertility treatment. From juggling appointments to managing medications and finances, the process takes a toll on both a patient's physical and mental health. A new partnership between Mandell's Clinical Pharmacy and Organic Conceptions provides a comprehensive resource to lessen the burden of every aspect of the fertility journey.

Mandell's Clinical Pharmacy works exclusively with fertility patients by providing both manufactured and compounded medications to patients and treatment centers throughout the United States. The pharmacy doesn't just supply medication - it helps patients navigate the complex medication needs of fertility treatments. By having medications, logistical support and patient education all in one place, the company strives to make the medication side of fertility care as stress-free for patients as possible.

Now, through a new partnership with Organic Conceptions, pharmacy patients will also be able to access mental health and emotional wellness resources. Mandell's patients can now claim discounted lifetime access to the Organic Conceptions platform.

Organic Conceptions provides a comprehensive array of on-demand emotional health classes, a 9-step research-based mindset course, 1:1 support, free group coaching, a private community and more.

"This program provides the emotional support patients need to understand their feelings, even when it's hard to stay positive," says Terry Malanda, Rph, founder and CEO of Mandell's Clinical Pharmacy. "It teaches patients how to emotionally cope with both success and failure and navigate through what that means for them. It will spare patients a lot of grief and pain that they don't have to go through."

Terry and her husband Eddie Malanda know just how difficult the process of undergoing fertility treatment can be because they went through it themselves. The couple struggled with infertility for five years. In that time, they underwent a long series of IUIs and a failed IVF cycle before successfully conceiving their son through frozen embryo transfer in 1996. They were able to start the family they always dreamed of, including conceiving their daughter naturally just 20 months later. But the process, Terry says, was anything but easy.

"Going through these treatments was nothing short of grueling," says Terry. "It's hard to imagine how physically and emotionally taxing this process is unless you've gone through it. Organic Conceptions is filling a huge void in the fertility field by taking mental health care seriously."

Like Terry and Eddie, Organic Conceptions Co-Founders Marc and Erin Sherman also struggled with both primary and secondary infertility for almost a decade.

"Infertility is an all-consuming thing," says Marc Sherman. "There was so much emphasis on the physical side - we knew every stat, every lab. But just as people prepare their bodies to get pregnant, we need to take that same preparation with our minds."

Emotional support shouldn't be an afterthought, he says, but a proactive and positive part of the preconception journey. So, they created the first online platform and support community that leverages the latest in mindset-strengthening techniques based on neuroscience research to help people reduce stress and restore joy on their journey to parenthood.

"Infertility has a massive impact on someone's mental health, and there's not enough support in the industry to help patients handle the emotional side of these treatments," says Brian Smith, VP of Sales and Business Development at Mandell's Clinical Pharmacy. "The more closely we work with our patients and the more they share about their journey, the more we recognize the need for this support."

"This is the type of emotional support I wish I had during my fertility journey, and we're proud to be able to be there for our patients in one of the most important and vulnerable times in their lives," says Terry Malanda.

About Organic Conceptions

Organic Conceptions was founded by Marc and Erin Sherman after they struggled with infertility for close to a decade. As a result of the experience, they created a comprehensive emotional health experience that consists of courses, master classes, assessments, live support calls, a private community and more.

The platform leverages the latest in cognitive behavioral therapy and neuroscience to help people reduce stress and restore joy by getting to the source of negative thoughts, self-defeating behaviors, and unproductive emotions that erode a person's quality of life.

In addition to their patient experience, Organic Conceptions created an education and training platform for fertility health professionals. The online self-guided and live trainings help providers better understand the psychological and emotional needs of their patients while at the same time learning strategies to avoid compassion fatigue and even burnout.
