Emotional outbursts, fuzzy thinking, memory challenges, furious hot flashes, and disturbed sleep caused by menopause..Gone!

In the interests of brevity, I will simply refer to the symptoms above as the reason for my seeking HRT. Initially, I explored allopathic offerings and was disgusted and dismayed to find that replacement estrogen was likely to have been manufactured from horse urine, not a substance you want in the human body, never mind the way it is extracted from the mare! I have subsequently been using bio-identical, transdermal hormones for some years now. They work. No more brain fog, better sleep, less irritability, in other words, better functioning overall. The only probable reason Big Pharma wants to ban them is that they occupy a niche in the industry that Big Pharma would rather be accessed by overly expensive drugs. Big Pharma always want more regulation, which inevitably seems to boost their excessive profits. This is a service that should not be discontinued. Bio-identicals are, to use a familiar phrase, truly 'safe and effective' when used as prescribed; independent studies verify that fact. Incidentally, I pay for them out of my own pocket; insurance is not involved.

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.

Explore our interactive map that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to patients all across the country. Filter these first-hand accounts by state to see just how vital compounded medicines are.
