Hormones saved my mental health

I started cHRT in my mid 40's. I was perimenopausal suffering from anxiety, panic attacks and depression. I tried HRT pills but they didn't help me. So went onto cHRT. I improved a lot. My therapist even noticed it. In 2018, I thought due to my age I would wean off. I did only to throw myself into severe anxiety, panic, and depression. Lost 20 pounds and muscle. I started seeing a therapist and tried anti-anxiety and antidepressant meds. The anti-anxiety helped some. But I was in a bad place mentally. Living day to day was hard. My husband and family can attest to that about me. I started cHRT back up. And with time, I am back to myself again. Please don't take away cHRT. I can't do that again. I may not make it.

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.
