I appreciate the ability to make minor adjustments to my hormone therapy based on how my body responds.

I have been using compounded hormone replacement for just over a year. In partnership with my primary care physician and my compounding pharmacist, we have been able to tailor my therapy to my needs. We can make minor adjustments based on how my body responds. I am not forced to take pre-determined pill dosages that may not meet my needs. I am able to sleep soundly through the night without multiple episodes of waking. Hot flashes are now controlled. This allows me to have productive work days without brain fog from fatigue and hormonal imbalances. I appreciate having a qualified care team take care of me and understand my health needs.

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.
