Eight years ago, after the birth of my youngest child, I got sick - severe, frequent migraines, pain, and exhaustion. I have been working with my doctor all this time working on feeling better so that I can take care of my family. I was recently diagnosed with a genetic syndrome, something we had never suspected but with my doctor's persistance and patient care, we figured it out. The diagnosis was complicated by being perimenopausal. Without cBHT we would never have known what symptoms were "just" hormonal and which were part of my syndrome. Without my doctor having the freedom to prescribe and adjust my cBHT, I would still be sick.

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.
