At the age of 40, my body started going into menopause. Compounded hormone replacement therapy completely changed my life for the good. Stopped that menopause in its tracks. No more hot flashes, brain fog, weight gain. Increased sex drive, and energy. No more dry vagina or painful sex. Then the insurance stopped covering. Jump forward seven years, if full on menopause, symptoms so bad I could barely function. My insurance would only cover crappy one size fits all HRT. After two months on an estrogen patch, a giant cyst was discovered in my right ovary. I immediately had to stop treatment. With no other options available. Inability to even have sex, it was too painful, and destroyed my marriage.

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.
