“I have a genetic thyroid problem that can cause considerable...”

I have a genetic thyroid problem that can cause considerable difficulty for me. Menopause was very difficult. In taking the bioidentical hormones, I experienced a great lessening of menopausal symptoms. I have been on them for several years with no difficulties. My life has been very much improved by taking bioidentical hormones. Perhaps the FDA would benefit by asking individuals themselves of their experience with bioidenticals. It sounds as if those companies who create non-bioidentical hormones are beginning to feel threatened that their profits will not be made if individuals switch to bioidenticals or take them instead of the synthetics. Why would anyone want to put something in their body that was not there in the first place. As far as I am concerned, natural is the best way to go.

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.
