“Compounded hormones have truly saved my life.”

I have been taking compounded hormones for several years. I feel like I have my life back. I honestly never want to be without them. I am healthy now and I sleep very well now.
Please notice that I say now. Before I started taking compounded hormones I could not sleep. My adrenal system was not functioning properly. I had absolutely no energy. I could not even work out because I was so weak. I was gaining weight and getting really puffy looking. I went to several doctors and I was tested for diabetes and so many other things. It wasn't until I went to an internist that knew exactly what tests to order for me to check my hormones. Most primary care specialists did not know exactly what tests to order. She prescribed me compounded hormones because I did not want to take anything that wasn't natural. I felt better almost immediately. I can not emphasize how horrible I felt, how hopeless I felt, how depressed I was getting, I felt as though I would never have a normal life again. I felt as though my life was over and that I didn't want to live like that. I was ready to give up. I had seen several doctors to figure out what was wrong with me. Compounded hormones have made such a difference in my life and the life of my family. My children have a healthy mom now. Compounded hormones have truly saved my life.

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.
