I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020. I was in chemo-induced menopause within the first month. This caused numerous, miserable mental, emotional and physical side effects. I asked 2 oncologists, my gynecologist, and a Menopause Specialist for help balancing my hormones with bio-identicals. I feel that I have the right to the best medicine available to me, and there are plenty of research studies to support the safe and effective use of bio-identical hormones for numerous issues, but especially in menopause. If the FDA removes access to the compounded hormones for millions of American women, I will consider it to be not only sexist but dangerous. Compounded hormones are proven to protect women's brains, bones and hearts as they age, and they may also prevent breast cancer. My sisters are also in menopause and use bio-identical hormones (one in Indiana and one in Texas.) I have 3 daughters, and I am concerned for their future welfare in a country that does not preserve options for women to balance hormones safely through compounding.
