I had very serious menopausal symptoms that were affecting my quality of life. I couldn't sleep or think, and had many sleepless (and sexless) nights, the hot flashes were very intense. My doctor suggested compound hormone replacement because it is made up especially for my body and personalized with each dose. We had to tweak it a few times to get it right, but once the formula was correct, I saw tremendous improvements in my life and body. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I prefer it because it is a more natural way to address my symptoms and is made especially for me. My quality of life (and my husbands and those around me!) would be greatly diminished if I did not have 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.
