I am chemically sensitive and had tried pre-made hormones for years; the patch, suppositories, oral, cream, etc. ALL of them had too many side effects for me. Every oral form (and sometimes the patches) gave me migraines. I do not even remember how I made it to the compounding version it has been so long. It took some trial and error to find the bases needed for me to tolerate this vehicle. The pharmacist was very patient with me. I think I started this at least around the age of 50 so I have been able to stick with this version for at least ten years if not more. If something happens to them I will have to give them up. Which means I may no longer be able to tolerate sex anymore either. This tiny amount of estrogen enables me to continue enjoying sex. I do not want to start over in trying different one-dose-fits-all prescription hormone medicine again. Please let me know who in the current government to contact about that if compounding hormones are going to be wiped out. I am too young to lose my sex life. Thank you. You may give my contact info to the FDA or share my testimony with them (preferably without my name shown if possible).
