“I started having symptoms around my 39th birthday. I was ful...”

I started having symptoms around my 39th birthday. I was fully menopausal at 45. With three little kids at home, my terrible day and night sweats, it was hard for me to function as a mom and a wife. I was always hot and sweaty. I was depressed. I couldn't be with my husband as we wanted. It put stress on our marriage. I tried the one fits all pill but didn't work for me and frankly, I was afraid to take it since I have learned that it's harmful. I started reading about bioidentical HT and liked everything about it. I started taking estradiol, testosterone cream and progesterone capsules. My life changed within a couple of weeks. I was, again, functioning as a loving mom and wife. I have plenty of energy and I sleep well. I actually had to set the alarm clock to wake up. I feel it would be a terrible thing to take from us this option. We are educated woman who CAN and WILL make our decisions of what works and does not work for us. I want to FDA out on my business when it comes to my health.

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.
