Compounded Testosterone cream improves my life quality.

I am a biological male, at age 45 I found out I had a testosterone level that was lower than the maximum level allowed for top female Olympic athletes.

For almost a year I had injected myself with Testosterone. It was getting difficult to find syringes and injection supplies due to the ongoing supply chain issues, and the fact that all of the vaccine manufacturers were taking up all of the low dead space syringes. I was routinely having to use single-use vials multiple times, and the side effects from injections were never-ending.

I eventually found a new physician who suggested compounded cream that I could simply apply on a daily basis, however, the cream was “Compounded” and I’d have to get it from a specialty compounding pharmacy.

After using the compounding pharmacy I can say that I’m doing way better with compounded testosterone. No more needles, worrying about if my other pharmacy has syringes available, worrying if I can get a multiple-use vial or even a single-use vial I can use multiple times.

I do still have a universal side effect from TRT, body acne, this too is taken care of by the same compounding pharmacy, the pharmacist, my physician, and I researched a formula that works quite well for body acne.

Without my compounded prescriptions I’d probably be back to square one or just barely getting by with injections, and honestly, I’m not sure I would continue TRT if I had to go back to injections.

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.
