“I started cBHT therapy at 36 years of age due to severe brai...”

I started cBHT therapy at 36 years of age due to severe brain fog and mood swings. It helped me to think more clearly and to be more stable emotionally. I have used it for 28 years now. My gynecologist asked me to stop, so I weaned myself off over eight months. I could not keep from sleeping 12 hours a day and thought my mono had returned. This was for weeks as I waited to see my PCP. My PCP said to take my hormones that night to see if it was the reason. I did and I woke up again and returned to my life as normal. These compounded hormones are made for just me and can be adjusted as I need them. I tried regular hormones before and I gained incredible water weight (became anorexic to stop weight gain). When I was so sick, I quit them and lost 15 pounds in a week or two. I was very ill. I need compounded, made-for-me hormones. Please do not take them from me.

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.
