“Compounded Hormones saved me and my 16 year old daughter.”

Hello,

I am a 42 yo wife and mother of 3 children. Since March 2020, bioidentical hormones have not only improved my health but also my mental health and relationships at home.

I started taking Progesterone to balance my very heavy cycles to avoid surgery which my mother had when she was in her 30s. My cycles are manageable and I am nicer to be around.

I started taking T3/T4 since hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's run in my family. I have better moods and other functions.

Since July 2020, my 16 yo daughter takes bioidentical Progesterone and it has changed her life. She started having a cycle at 10 yo which is when her intense headaches began. Her pediatrician did not know how to help her beyond getting more sleep, drinking more water, and reducing blue light exposure. Not only does the Prog help reduce her excruciating cycles, but it also reduces her daily headache frequency by 90%. She feels better and is easier to be around, so it has improved the relationships in our home.

I do not know what we would do without our bioidentical hormones that are compounded. It has changed our family for the better.

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.
