Prior to taking hormones, I was fatigued and exhausted. I could not sleep and felt overloaded. It was very difficult to get up in the morning and go to work because I had not slept. Then while at work, I was just not able to focus. It was a miracle when I learned of and started to use hormones. The hormones are now balanced and I sleep well every night. I have good energy levels and am able to focus. I feel good all the time. If I lost the ability to take hormones at this point in my life, it would be an unbearable thought. The doctor is very good about making sure I am balanced. My quality of life and my health are greatly improved due to hormones.

Because of very early menopause, I took cBHT to reduce the typical symptoms. I continued to take it because of a family history of heard disease and osteoporosis. It has been good for my entire body!
“I am unable to take pharmaceutical dosing to replace hormone...”
I am unable to take pharmaceutical dosing to replace hormones due to menopause. The bioidentical hormones allow me to receive the exact proper dosage of the hormones my body requires with NO side effects. My life will be greatly negatively impacted if I am unable to continue to receive this life enhancing medication.
“I am 63 and have been using compounded hormones for over 23 ...”
I am 63 and have been using compounded hormones for over 23 years. I am under a physician's care and have my blood tested every six months. I look, act and feel like a woman in her early 40's. I have had no side effects and am in excellent shape. I exercise regularly. Without my hormones, I know my vitality and energy would be far less. Big Pharma should not be driving this bus. Please include ALL points of view on this subject and speak to women like me who have been on them for a very long time.
“I have never had the usual symptoms of menopause and I can o...”
I have never had the usual symptoms of menopause and I can only assume it is because my doctor and I have worked together to use the right amount and correct dosage of my bioidentical compound. It has been a blessing. It is a shame that this alternative is not covered by insurance and has to fight Big Pharma to stay alive. It works!
“I have better energy, better sleep (eliminates night sweats)...”
I have better energy, better sleep (eliminates night sweats), better mood, and better thinking (clarity rather than confusion).
“Compound hormones are safe and are not the same as the synth...”
Compound hormones are safe and are not the same as the synthetic hormones that have been stated to be harmful and possibly cause cancer in women. Being able to have access to as natural as possible prescriptions is vital to our bodies is a much healthier option. The thought that government wants to eliminate this option is despicable. Government wants to regulate every industry, but take away options for the American people that they should have the right to choose and are better options. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. THIS IS NOT FREEDOM. Giving the people the right to choose is our right and freedom. I hope this message will be taken in consideration for the people of this country.

I was allergic to the FDA approved ones, and when I tried BHT I stopped having spotting, pain, hot flashes and migraines that I was having during menopause. I can now go a full day without sweating to death, being irritable, moody, losing my hair, feeling depressed and now I can actually sleep.

Using compounded hormones was the only thing that was making me feel better. Nothing else was working. I also like that I don't have the increased cancer risk that comes with the synthetic hormones. Breast cancer runs in both sides of my family.

I chose to go this route so I can control what is in it and have no fillers. Since I have family history of breast cancer, this is a safer way to take estrogen.

I was suffering from several unpleasant symptoms of menopause, but the worst was the extreme vaginal dryness that made sex painful and also, I had a loss of desire. After finding the right balance of hormones specifically made for me, I feel wonderful and all my symptoms are under control.

My day to day livelihood was impacted tremendously by better health. Prior to using bioidentical hormones I was prescribed patches and pills that gave me terrible side effects. After saying no to the offer of surgery, I went with bioidentical hormones and my health was returned to its normal healthy state. After using the bioidentical hormones for years, I remain healthy and strong, and will continue to maintain this status quo.
