“I have been on bioidentical hormones since menopause attacked me...”

I have been on bioidentical hormones since menopause attacked me approximately fifteen years ago. The hot flashes, night sweats, and especially the insomnia disrupted my teaching and personal life. I wanted help to control these symptoms, but I did NOT want my body invaded by artificial hormones. I felt and still feel comfortable using cBHT. I am now in my early seventies and am still able to be very active. My bone density comes back perfect every year and often my general practitioner is impressed the blood work. I get blood work done every six months to make sure all the hormones are balanced. I am under the care of a very knowledgeable doctor. I am very pleased with the help the hormones provide to make my life more positive and active than it was before. They have really helped me maintain a excellent quality of life. I wish I would have known about them even before I began menopause. I am imploring you to not mess with compound hormone therapy.

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.
