“Compounded bioidentical hormone therapy has made a huge impa...”

Compounded bioidentical hormone therapy has made a huge impact on the quality of my life. I know without them I would be very depressed. I have suffered from Polycystic ovary syndrome since I was 13 years old. I have tried many types of synthetic hormones over the years to try to correct my hormone imbalance but they made me feel terrible. When I was on synthetic hormones I was depressed and I suffered with constant headaches, felt nauseated most of the time and was extremely tired. After taking compounded bioidentical hormones, I do not suffer at all with with these side effects and I feel like a normal healthy human being. I never want to go back to synthetic hormones. Bioidentical hormones have truly changed my life. I would be devastated if this option was not available to me or was restricted. I pray that this will not happen and that the FDA will not put restrictions on compounding bioidentical hormone therapy.

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.
