For over 10 years I would go to my yearly OB/GYN and tell her how health wise I was fine. I didn't have any "typical" health problems, even though I was majorly overweight (5'5" 248lbs.)
I was tired, had no sex drive, and was just Blah! I would and could do anything I needed to, but I had no motivation, and couldn't lose any weight... not even a pound...no matter what I did. I've had a personal trainer for decades, and my weight would never change. I could eat very little, or go out to eat and it never changed my weight. Constipated or upset stomach every day for years!
My husband begged me to start hormone therapy because I wasn't myself. I finally, reluctantly agreed. This was a huge deal to me because I have NEVER taken anything besides tylenol, advil, or an occasional antibiotic or steroid for an infection.
After 2 weeks on compounded HRT I had lost 3 lbs! First time in years that my weight changed. I've now been on them for 3 months and have lost 10 pounds. Within days I started having energy again! I feel like I can live my life like i used to.
Compounding also helped me and my 2 daughter when they were babies and we contracted Giardia.
Please don't regulate or take this life changing pharmaceutical method away!!
