“I suffered horribly from post-menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and fatigue.”

I could barely get out of bed when I began to approach menopause and I was working as a registered nurse. I could hardly get through one eight-hour shift. I was always tired and could not function well on the job. I went to see a preventive medicine doctor who tested my hormone levels and said they were extremely low, which would account for my symptoms. He then prescribed the bioidentical hormones and my life began to change for the better. Please do not interfere with a doctor's ability to prescribe these life-saving medications for patients who are suffering.

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.
