Compounding is essential to life

I have been taking compounded bio-identical hormones for 20 years with no side effects. I feel that they are essential to my life. Prior to starting them in my 40s, I was almost dysfunctional...memory, anxiety, focus, motivation, guilt. Doctors had me on all sorts of medications that did not help me for almost 3 years before I did enough research and found a doctor who would work with me to prescribe the bio-identical hormones. I had myself back!!! I was able to get rid of all the prescription drugs they were giving me and feel normal again. Please consider the mental health, strength, physical health, and productive lives of those that need hormone replacement. It changed my life! I thought I had lost all control and couldn't get it back with what doctors were sure their medications could correct... the medications did not work, but the bio-identical hormones did! It is hard enough to find doctors who will listen to you without having availability issues.

I am 65 years old now, and no one has a clue about my illness unless I tell them. I have energy, my skin is great, I can focus and I'm almost always happy without fighting every moment to try to be. Please keep compounding available!

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.
