I have Hashimoto's Thyroiditis; it's a delicate balance between my gut, thyroid, and adrenals. In regards to thyroid medication, I tried non-compounded and my thyroid antibodies went extremely high. On compounded T3/T4, they remain at a decent level. With compounded hormones, I've been able to adjust my prescription as my body has changed from pre-menopause to menopause. Given the experience I've had, I dread to imagine the other health issues that would arise if I wasn't able to tailor my prescription to my body's individual needs. As I said, it's a delicate balance. While there are many things in common between everyone's bodies, each person is an individual in how we react to our environment, food, medications, etc. We need more holistic, individualized medical care, not less.

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.
