Hormone Balancing

My story although brief has been a life saver. Quite literally. 2 years ago, despite being fit and in great shape, I had a stroke from what the neurologist referred to as the perfect storm of HBP, stress, & middle-aged female hormones. I had a rough recovery and eventually came to realize some of my deficits were greatly exasperated at various points during my cycle. My physical fitness trainer and nutritionist saw dramatic declines in my mobility and muscle tone and encouraged me to get my hormones tested. Boom! They were horrible. It was no wonder I felt like crap and had no energy despite my healthy diet and exercise routines!

Fortunately I have a great doctor who was willing to help me work on getting my hormones balanced in this challenging time of my life. I started with Progesterone and then Testosterone troches and haven't felt better since the stroke! Many of my physical ailments are catching up with my body and I attribute this greatly to me being able to obtain proper hormone therapy.

Recently I started working with Esther Blum, hormone expert and nutritionist, and am learning so much about the importance of hormone therapy not just for my immediate needs, but for thousands of other women who suffer and would otherwise have their lives and energy and so much more sucked out from under them!

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.
