I was experiencing debilitating anxiety, with traditional prescription meds not helping at all. I tried several prescriptions over an 18-month (miserable) time period. Two months on a compounded progesterone troche, my symptoms were drastically reduced, and I had hope that I might be able to regain some sort of normal life for the first time in the 18 months! It's been a year since I've been on this compounded regimen and I'm virtually symptom free now! Also, I am allergic to synthetic estrogen (I couldn't even take birth control pills), so when I do hit full menopause, if bioidentical hormones are not available to me from a compounding pharmacy, I will have to suffer through menopause with no relief!

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.
