I was diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2016. I then underwent six surgeries to remove all cancer, one in which was a complete hysterectomy. Slowly, I started noticing mood changes, low libido, hot flashes and severe depression and panic attacks. I seen several different physicians seeking help and knowing in my heart that thus was all caused from my hormones. It wasn't until I confided in my cancer doctor last year that I had actually thought of suicide that she referred me to a hormone replacement specialist. She prescribed compound therapy gels as well as patches. This has literally changed my life! For the first time in years, I feel normal again and I am loving life. I hate to think that anyone would dare take these treatments away from people who desperately need them.

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.
