“Based on blood tests for annual physicals, my GP determined ...”

Based on blood tests for annual physicals, my GP determined I was pre-menopausal, approximately six years ago. She prescribed a compounded cream to help balance my hormones. I applied the cream during pre-menopause and she adjusted the compound after menopause. Balanced hormones helped me in many ways, including better sleep, mood swings, night sweats, etc. It made my life a LOT better. My doctor was able to adjust my prescription according to where I was in the process. I don't like the thought of my doctor not being able to customize what I specifically need. I don't think a standardized approach to hormone therapy would be at all effective.

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.
