Compounded hormones saved my life.

My story is that I began to relapse into an old illness when Menopause began. I was very scared that I was going to be doomed to an incapacitating life again. I am highly susceptible to negative consequences from pharmaceutical drugs. My doctor recommended bioidentical compounded hormones. I was able to tolerate them and I got my life back. I don’t know if you have any idea what that would be like, but taking that option away from myself and others with similar challenges seems criminal to me. Why would you intentionally create harm to American citizens and remove a necessary health care option? We all deserve options in our healthcare. One size fits all isn’t the solution.

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.
