A couple of months before I turned 50, I started menopause.....

A couple of months before I turned 50, I started menopause... and stopped sleeping. It was as if a light went off. I could sleep only about 1.5 hrs per night. Period. Never had a hot flash, but the horrific insomnia is like a death sentence. I wanted to die. My quality of life was nil. I was miserable. My doctors have put me on various hormone replacement therapies over the years, all sorts of sleep therapy, doctors, this list goes on and on. But now at the age of 65, I have been using cBHRT (cream form) for a few years, and while I don't feel like I did as a young lady, I can at least get enough sleep at night that I don't want my life to end. I have a lot to live for. Four beautiful grandchildren, a husband, and two wonderful daughters and their spouses. Please do not take away from me this one last lifeline I have to sanity and a decent quality of life!

Hear their stories. Protect their own words. Protect their access to compounded medicines.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.

Explore our interactive map that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to patients all across the country. Filter these first-hand accounts by state to see just how vital compounded medicines are.
