“I stopped producing eggs after my second child's birth in 1977...”

The story goes back to giving birth to my second and last child in 1977. Oh my goodness. I’m just now wondering if this is the cause for my son's low self esteem since age 5. Will leave this part of the story here and focus on my hormone treatment replacement (HRT). If this is the story you are looking for. I received treatment for a bad case of PMS. My OBGYN doctor in the 80s started prescribing compounded hormones and stopped when he retired in 2018. The medication did more than treat my hormone imbalance. I looked younger and had yet to suffer from the need for treatment of other organs breaking down or health issues. Yes, a rare case of staying young looking until now I’m falling apart physically yet still have no organ ailments, looking older, and suffering mental abuse for my extraordinary energy. Sudden loss of weight now exasperated by homelessness since April 2022. This is my dilemma and predicament caused by, I am sure, missing my HRT.

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.
