Why Passwords Get Forgotten?
We’ve all been there. Between work logins, social media accounts, banking apps, and more, it’s nearly impossible to remember every password we create. If it’s been a while since you last logged into MyLGHealth, or you recently changed your password and can’t recall it, don’t worry—it happens to everyone.
MyLGHealth has a secure, step-by-step password reset process designed to protect your information while getting you back into your account as quickly as possible.
Step-by-Step: How to Reset Your MyLGHealth Password
Here’s how to reset your password if you’ve forgotten it:
1. Go to the MyLGHealth Login Page
Copy and visit the URL: https://www.mylghealth.org/mychart/Authentication/Login? in your browser. On the homepage, you’ll see the “Forgot Password?” link just below the login form.
2. Click “Forgot Password?”
Click that link, and you’ll be taken to a page where you’ll need to enter some identifying information. This usually includes:
- Your MyLGHealth Username
- Your Date of Birth
- Your ZIP Code
This is to confirm your identity and protect your private health information.
3. Follow the Verification Steps
After entering your information, you’ll be asked to verify your identity. Depending on what you’ve set up in your account, this could be a security question or a code sent via email or text message.
4. Create a New Password
Once your identity is confirmed, you’ll be prompted to create a new password. Choose something secure and memorable. Avoid using the same password as other sites or something easily guessed like “123456” or your birthday.
5. Log In with Your New Password
After resetting your password, return to the login page and sign in using your new credentials.
Tips for Creating a Strong Password
When setting your new password, here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Use a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters
- Include at least one number and one symbol
- Avoid personal info like your name, birth date, or address
- Aim for at least 8–12 characters long
- Consider using a password manager to safely store your login info

What If You Don’t Remember Your Username?
If you can’t remember your MyLGHealth username either, don’t worry—there’s a “Forgot Username?” link on the same login page. The recovery process is similar, and once you retrieve your username, you can continue with the password reset steps.
