“Compounded hormones are miles better than the regular ones”

I started taking compounded hormones when I went through menopause about 14 years ago. I felt the benefits immediately - greatly reduced mood swings, no more hot/cold flashes, increased muscle strength, and firmer skin. They are expensive, so I tried regular hormones for a while to see if I could save money. A few days after taking the "regular" hormones, I had to go off of them, because I felt like I'd been hit by a truck. I went back to compounded hormones and I'm still on them and will be for as long as I can. Quality of life is important. Don't take that away from me.

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.
