Hello,
There are many different types of hormone treatments for a wide range of medical conditions.
Some conditions will not be compatible with service, but others will be.
Soldiers who are able to join, and are on medication, but are deemed 'fit' for deployment will be given enough supply to last them while they are away.
Best of luck.
